Deep in the recesses of the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, where Elise love to shop, she found this amazing hand-made griffin. It has been aging on her workbench for decades and, finally, it has come to light. The griffin is a symbol of courage and boldness. In this necklace the griffin is enhanced with a texturally interesting array of sterling silver beads. Hanging from each of the griffin’s feet is a small moonstone bead. Moonstone is the stone of inner growth and strength. Combined with the griffin, this original necklace is a powerful talisman. The necklace is 22 inches long and is finished with a secure, sterling-silver hook clasp.
