Italian Vintage Hydra Cuff Bangle

Italian Vintage Hydra Cuff Bangle Italian Vintage Hydra Cuff Bangle- this wonderful ethnic styled cuff pays tribute to the Greek Hydra/ Octopus in Minoan and Cretan culture- linked to Odysseus, it is a symbol of intelligence and wisdom, as well as the abundance and gifts from the Sea. Possibly crafted as a neutral cuff for both men and women, this intriguing bangle has a strong Byzantine feel- the dual use of 14K gold and silver metals, along with its ornate design, is sure to be a conversation starter. Textured and oxidised silver with a prominent, textured round gold medallion with Octopus, flanked by two coiled golden serpents. Serpents, often named Drakon, were polysemic symbols representing wisdom, healing, death and rebirth. We love the hand beaten oxidised silver, all the mythological symbolism, ad the lustre of pure gold overlay- mesmerising! Wear this cuff as your own talisman. HALLMARKED Assay Florence 14K Gold and 925 Silver. Have more questions about this product?
