This unique pendant is a representation of the sun, and is based on a Roman necklace of the third century AD. It is light and delicate, warm and bright, featuring gorgeous and distinctive S-curved beams that radiate outward in all directions.

According to Greek mythology, Hemera was the goddess of the daytime, the personification of day. She was one of the Greek primordial deities, and the daughter of night, Nyx. Every night, Nyx would cover the sky with her veil, bringing night, and every morning, Hemera would scatter her mother's fog and bring daylight to the earth, again.

Our pendant may also be purchased along with one of our 20" Italian gold or silver chains, available .
