Pelican Necklace

In the quiet hush of medieval manuscripts and the gilded glow of cathedral frescoes, the pelican appears, not as mere bird, but as a living allegory of sacrificial love. Legend held that in times of famine, the mother pelican would pierce her own breast to feed her young with her blood. To the faithful, she became a symbol of Christ Himself: wounded, generous, and endlessly merciful.

This hand-sculpted necklace captures that ancient tenderness. The pelican, rendered in graceful detail, bows her head in solemn offering. Her wings cradle the space where life and love converge. An ode to the elegance of pontifical tradition and the Church’s maternal heart.
