A life cast Hawk claw forever grasps a stunning Silver Sheen Obsidian sphere. 

Based on the image of the 'Ball and Claw' used throughout Victorian era furniture design, this is a reimagined take on our beloved 'The Messenger' necklace. The design's roots historically come from ancient China: in myth, the Emperor's Dragon guarded a pearl or a crystal ball that was considered to be a symbol of wisdom and purity. 

As many other birds of prey, the Hawk is considered to be a 'Messenger' between the natural world, and the spirit realm, which in myth and folklore, exists alongside our world and is generally 'unseen'. Hawks, cunning hunters, are deeply attuned to their senses. They can see in a visual range that humans can not, and they are able to soar high in the sky. Their presence suggests a time to 'look closer' or 'deeper' at the world and people around you, especially to the 'unseen': a closer look at your feelings, your unconscious, or to have better empathy for the struggles of others.

Silver Sheen Obsidian:

Silver Sheen Obsidian is a natural stone made of polished volcanic glass from Mexico. This stone is dark in color but has beautiful flashes of silver when turned, that resemble the moon going through her many phases, or tiny galaxies teeming with space dust. 

This sphere is hand cut and therefore may have small signs of the carver's hands along the edges. This has not been fabricated by a machine, it has been made by hand and therefore isn't uniformly perfect. The photograph accurately portrays the quality of the stone.
