Description from the seller
I offer at auction a spectacular long Brazilian agate necklace; Santa Agatha stone (Symbol of Fortitude). The entire necklace has been hand-knotted with knots at every bead.
This exclusive necklace, being very long, can be worn in many different ways, all very flattering depending on the occasion.
The relationship between agate and Christianity is twofold: on the 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: pink, blue, purple, brown, yellow, gray... from Brazil - HIGH QUALITY
Gem origin: Brazil
Bead size: approximately 19 mm
Black agate bead size: approximately 3 mm
Necklace length: 138 cm - VERY LONG
Professionally hand-knotted necklace with knots at every bead
Quality silk-cotton blend thread
Gift box and protective pouches
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 resolve 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 patron saint of nurses and people who suffer from breast cancer, due to the torments she endured.
