The raven is a symbol of intelligence, adaptability, partnerships, guidance, transformation, and prophecy. Because of its black plumage, croaking call, and diet of carrion, the raven is often associated with loss and ill omen. Yet, its symbolism is complex. As a talking bird, the raven also represents prophecy and insight. Ravens in stories often act as psychopomps, connecting the material world and the spirit world. The raven moon necklace is made of solid hypoallergenic 316L surgical stainless steel. The pendant has a high-polish finish with glossy black enamel fill in the recessed areas. The design without bail measures approximately 42mm long by 31mm wide by 1.4mm thick. The bail can accommodate a chain or cord necklace up to 3mm wide. This raven moon pendant will arrive ready to wear on a 20-inch long 2.5mm wide 316L stainless steel rolo chain necklace. A gift box is included with the purchase.
