Pandora Pendant Awe Inspired

The Goddess Pandora represents the concept of everlasting hope and desire for knowledge. With tumbling hair, opening a lid in the style of vintage jewelry boxes, she embodies youthful curiosity. Pandora’s soft, romantic beauty does not stop her from flirtation with danger and the undeniable draw of the unknown. Playful and whimsical, she always looks ahead with hope and an undertone of deadly sharp ambition.

Her femininity is celebrated with flowers crowning her hair, as a reminder that women hold humanity’s hope and future, encouraging progression and not choosing to remain ignorant. The white sapphire set in the bale above her head represents intelligence, curiosity and thirst for knowledge.

The first woman, Pandora was given a box but instructed never to open it, without being told what was contained within. Strong willed and independent, the gods knew she would never choose to remain ignorant of the contents, thereby tricking her into opening the box and allowing the evils of the world to fly out. Devastated, Pandora discovered that hope lay in the very bottom of the box. This is why hope is the very last thing to be lost in the human spirit.

This story is not a connection between women and evil. Pandora represents the desire to bring light to dark places and banish ignorance, the will to learn and grow through mistakes, to look difficulty in the face and discover what lies within. Her story speaks to the resilience and power of knowledge in a woman’s hands, and the hope that keeps her in her power. Wear Pandora as a reminder to stay curious, whimsical and ever hopeful, and to allow your natural inclination towards learning and growth to blossom.
