Annunciation Pendant Featuring Catholic Art by Dovetail Ink in Vintage Style Setting

This stunning and unique pendant necklace features the watercolor "Annunciation" by Monica Welch of Dovetail Ink ( Dovetailink.etsy.com ). It is truly a one-of-a-kind. Here is a description of the painting in Monica's words: " The Annunciation. The moment when "The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary, and she conceived of the Holy Spirit." "Behold the handmaid of the Lord. Be it done unto me according to Thy word." These lines from the Gospel of Luke, also included in the traditional Catholic prayer "The Angelus," are the groundwork upon which this piece was built. This piece is chock full of beautiful symbolism. Mary is grounded, the colors of the earth and mountains. Gabriel and the Dove are the colors of the breaking dawn, of the heavens. One of my favorites: the outline of the rising sun is placed where Mary's belly will be as the birth of our Savior approaches - the glory of the Lord shines around her, lighting the world and chasing the shadows away. " The painting in its entirety, may be viewed here: www.etsy.com/listing/185995278/annunciation-watercolor-catholic-art The cropped image is set into an antique bronze Tibetan Style pendant setting and sealed in with a jeweler's grade resin. The setting is made from an alloy and is nickel free, making it safe for sensitive skin. The pendant comes on an 18" brass chain. It will arrive in a gift box with a handmade card. It's ready to gift to someone special. All you need to do is sign the card.
