Daphne
Daphne Bracelet is made with recycled 925 sterling silver 24ct gold plated. Completely handmade.
Daphne was a Greek dryad, a tree spirit, and the daughter of Peneus, the river god. According to myth, Apollo, the god of hunting, music, and poetry, offended Eros, the god of love, by ridiculing his archery skills. In response, Eros shot two arrows: one that filled Apollo with an uncontrollable desire for Daphne, and another that caused Daphne to despise all matters of love. Apollo pursued Daphne relentlessly, and when she could run no more, she appealed to her father for help. Peneus transformed her into a laurel tree. This event led Apollo to adopt laurel leaves as his distinctive symbol, thus connecting the laurel tree to the god Apollo in Greek mythology.
This piece is completely handmade with lost wax casting method. It’s the process where Hespérides take a hand-carved wax model and turn it into a finished piece in precious metal.
Each piece is unique and might vary slightly from portrayed images.
