This sterling silver infinity ouroboros snake charm honors a long tradition of serpents in jewelry designs. Snake imagery is found in jewelry dating from ancient times through today. Totally unconnected civilizations, separated by the vast barriers of time and space, have discovered the intrinsic beauty of this form.
In MesoAmerican cultures, the serpent was regarded as a portal between two worlds. And the Aboriginal people worship a huge python who created the landscape and embodies the spirit of fresh water. Now, connected in the form of an infinity link, the symbolism with this charm is double-fold.
Length measurement includes the 5 mm soldered jump ring.
