The EUROPA necklace features an intaglio engraving depicting the goddess Europa on natural labradorite. In Greek mythology, Europa was a Phoenician princess revered by the Cretans as a moon goddess. Her parentage varies across different accounts; some say she was the daughter of King Agenor of Phoenicia and his consort Telephassa, while others claim she was the daughter of Phoenix and Perimede. According to legend, Europa epitomized feminine beauty on Earth. One day, Zeus spotted her on the seashore of Phoenicia, playing with her friends. Captivated by her beauty, he fell deeply in love with her and desired to possess her.
Labradorite, known as a stone of magic and mystery, symbolizes transformation and is believed to help individuals discover their true paths in life. It also serves as a protective stone, guarding against negative energy while promoting healing. This gemstone creates a shield for auras, offering protection against the world’s negativity and tempering the negativity within ourselves.
