Silver Poison Pendant with a Raw Ruby inlay

Never Worn and time to part ways, a beautiful piece whose name has a very interesting history. Vintage poison rings and items of the sort have a long history and originated in ancient India and the Far East, then the mysterious jewelry made its way to Europe in the 16th century. And I love that this piece originally came from India itself! And as for Ruby! It has been associated with improved energy and concentration, creativity, loyalty, honor and compassion. Ruby is thought to be protective of home, possessions and family. Ruby is said to stimulate heart chakra and bring spiritual wisdom while shielding against psychic attacks.
