Handmade Heart Theme Sterling Silver Harmony Ball Necklace, "Loving Whirlwind"
Enveloping a shining globe like a whirlwind, sterling tendrils are outlined by diminutive silver granules known as jawan. It encloses a brass ball in a necklace from Sukartini. A silver chain complete the mesmerizing design.
Also called "angel necklaces" and "harmony balls," Such necklaces are often worn by pregnant women in Bali and also in Mexico. Many wear it as an amulet. Others prefer a long chain that lets the pendant reach to the belly and the delicate sounds are thought to soothe the mother and the baby she is carrying. Some believe it summons a guardian angel, thus making it a symbol of loving protection.

"Cheerful chime"
I love this design and the name ?Loving Whirlwind?. The design is dynamic and beautiful, and the name conjures memories of people in my world whom I could describe as ?Loving Whirlwinds?. The chime is cheerful, and I love wearing it.
