925 Sterling Silver Blue Cubic Zirconia 1" Round Domed Cleopatra's Eye Evil Eye Pendant Charm - Pharaoun Jewelry for Protection & Style - Perfect for Cocktail Parties, Gift Giving & Everyday Wear

Ever since I was a boy, I have loved classical mythology. There is one real life leader that inspired her own rich mythology: Cleopatra. A female leader like Cleopatra might seem exceptional today, but I like to imagine a future when a great leader like Cleopatra will not be an exception, but the rule. My wife Sarah introduced me to the eye symbol, which I like to believe represents the strength of female leadership. There is no place that female leadership is more clear than in motherhood. Under a woman's patient and ever-watchful eye, she sees clearly, empathizes, and protects her loved ones, which I believe are the characteristics required for visionary leadership. This 22 karat yellow gold plated or .925 sterling silver pendant features gorgeous reverse-set cubic zirconia gems for a completely unique look that displays the typically hidden facets of a woman's power. Like Sarah and Cleopatra, I hope my pendant reminds you of how great a leader you can be, too. They are exquisite, but not visible to all. Just like you, this ring does not need to reveal itself to others, just like you don't need to reveal yourself to know your inner power. To me, a mandala is a representation that can encompass the self or the cosmos. My Night Mandala ring is an “outer” mandala that represents the entirety of our universe.

Read more The Sand Mandala Every winter, my sister Beatriz would create a mandala at my parent’s vacation home near Key West. My mother would donate the surplus from her sand collection, each from a different beach or desert around the world, gifted by friends on their travels or collected by her. It was amazing to see how my sister would weave their colors to construct a new mandala every year. Upon completion, it lasted only a few hours or days, as the sand would slowly disperse with the breeze. Read more Hand Crafted Designs I study great jewelry pieces from history. I find the pieces royalty had commissioned beautiful and fascinating. I also find inspiration in traditional Japanese crafts and the ocean. My rings, pendants and earrings are meticulously designed and hand crafted, inspiring you to surround yourself with the ultimate in luxury. #HonorYourself I believe the cocktail ring is the woman’s ring. It’s worn on the right hand and represents the most important relationship you have — with yourself. Almost all of my pieces have stones on the underside, just for you to enjoy. Honor used to be reserved for royalty, but I hope when you wear one of my rings, you honor yourself.
