Dendera Necklace
Step into the ancient magic of Egypt as you adorn yourself with the Dendera Necklace. Named after the Dendera Temple, this exquisite amulet is an homage to this sacred sanctuary and the goddess Hathor.
Dendera is a temple of the Ptolemaic era dedicated to Hathor, built in the city of Denderah (ancient Iunet or Tentira), in Egypt. Hathor was among the most important and popular deities in ancient Egypt. She was associated with love, joy, the arts, and motherhood; she was also known as the goddess of the sky. Her main temple was at Dendera where one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt stands today along the Nile River, since 2300 years ago.
Imagine wandering through the hallowed halls of the Dendera Temple, surrounded by the iconic Hathor-headed columns that adorn the Hypostyle Hall. Decorated by infinite reliefs and carvings depicting scenes of devotion and offerings to the gods, each telling a story of ancient reverence and spirituality. As you gaze upwards, you find the mesmerizing Dendera Zodiac adorning the ceiling, with its rich hues of Egyptian blue, symbolizing the heavens, the stars, and the divine. This celestial tapestry, full of detailed hieroglyphics, speaks of an era steeped in mysticism and Egyptian mythology.
Inspired by the divine feminine energy of Hathor, the Dendera Necklace is adorned with chrysocolla azurite gemstones, reminiscent of the vibrant colours of the Dendera Temple, and accented with gold-plated finishings.
Each Dendera Necklace is a unique treasure and limited edition: only two available. Whether you're drawn to its symbolic significance or captivated by these special gemstones, the Dendera Necklace invites you to embrace the essence of Hathor and celebrate the power of love, creation, and femininity within you.
