Description from the seller
I offer at auction a spectacular long necklace of Brazilian agates (green, brown, purple, blue... ) Santa Agatha stone (Symbol of Fortitude). The entire necklace has been hand-knotted with knots on each bead; the clasp is 925 silver with gold plating.
This exclusive necklace, being very long, can be worn in many different ways, all very flattering depending on the occasion.
The relationship of agate with Christianity is twofold: on one hand, it is mentioned as a precious stone in the Bible, and on the other, it is associated with the figure of Saint Agatha (Symbol of Fortitude).
Material: green, blue, purple, brown agates... from Brazil - HIGH QUALITY
Origin of the gems: Brazil
Agate shape: oval-flat - VERY SPECIAL
Bead size: approximately 38 mm
Necklace length: 118 cm - VERY LONG
Necklace hand-knotted professionally with knots at each bead
Quality thread blend of silk and cotton
Gift box and protective bags
The photos are part of the description
The display bust has a diameter of 22 cm (not for auction)
Saint Agatha of Catania
Martyr and Patron: Agatha (from Greek agathé, meaning 'kind') was a young virgin and martyr of the 3rd century in Sicily, who suffered persecution for her Christian faith under Emperor Decius.
Fortitude symbolism: Her story is an example of unwavering faith and steadfastness in the face of torture. She is the patron saint of Catania and her intercession is invoked against volcanic eruptions (such as Mount Etna). She is also the patroness of nurses and people who suffer from breast cancer, due to the torments she endured.
