Kiln-fired Artemis necklace based on a Victorian cameo. Here the goddess is represented holding a bow with her hound dog at her feet.
Artemis, in Greek religion, the goddess of wild animals, the hunt, and vegetation and of chastity and childbirth; she was identified by the Romans with Diana. Artemis was the daughter of Zeus and Leto and the twin sister of Apollo. Among the rural populace, Artemis was the favourite goddess.

PRODUCT CARE:
 
- Bronze has been valued since antiquity for its strength and warm, golden tone. Over time, it naturally oxidizes—much like silver—creating a rich patina that adds depth and character. Its original luster can be easily restored with a jeweler’s polishing cloth as needed.
 
- Gold-Plated Bronze Care: Our gold-plated bronze pieces are crafted with a layer of gold over solid bronze; over time, the bronze beneath may naturally oxidize, especially with exposure to moisture, lotions, and perfumes, and can be refreshed with gentle jewelry care.
