Mother Earth giving birth

The earth  is perceived to be the provider in many of the world's mythologies. In Sanskrit it is known as 'Pṛthvī Mātā' and is a common personification of the Earth and its biosphere as the giver and sustainer of life. This timeless belief is the inspiration for this pendant. This piece is an attempt to freeze a moment from the act of creation. Platinum coated silver forms the base which is embedded with Swarowski crystals. The crystals are symbolic of everlasting fertility.
