The detailed Medusa pendant is crafted in solid .925 sterling silver. One of the most recognizable figures in Greek mythology, Medusa is also the most famous amongst the Gorgons. While some regard her as a monster with snakes for hair and the ability to turn someone to stone just by looking at them, many others see her as a powerful symbol of protection that helps repel evil. Her name itself comes from an Ancient Greek verb meaning "to guard or protect". Many modern powerful women have proudly worn a head full of snakes to depict power, sexuality, and the acknowledgment of their emerging role in society and politics.

Do not wear your jewelry in the shower, bath, or while swimming
Store your jewelry in a dry, airtight container when not wearing it, preferably with an anti-tarnish strip
Put your jewelry on last in order to minimize its exposure to chemicals (lotion, perfume, hairspray, etc.)
Periodically, use a soft silver polishing cloth to gently clean your silver
