Snake imagery extends back to ancient times, playing a role in rituals, storytelling, art, and of course, jewelry. Many cultures linked snakes with fertility, seeing these serpents as symbolic of an umbilical cord between humans and the Earth.
Snakes also represent eternal love with the most famous snake engagement ring given to Queen Victoria upon her betrothal to her beloved Prince Albert. But double snakes take on a deeper meaning, with the most notable double snake being the Caduceus. Though the name might not be familiar, the imagery certainly will be: it is used as the symbol of medicine today. It features two snakes winding around a winged staff. The image has origins in Greek mythology where it was known as Hermes emblem. Though the symbol did not really have any overt links to medicine back then, it took on meanings associated with alchemy and pharmacy as far back as Medieval Europe.
This vintage double serpent queen with diamond eyes is crafted in the most buttery vibrant 18K gold. We love the intricate and unique way these two are deeply entangled, the ultimate symbol of eternal love.
