Symbol of Immortality & Protection
The ankh is perhaps the most widely known Egyptian symbol, representing life, the universe, and immortality. It is symbolic of regeneration. Furthermore, it is theorized that the staff portion is representative of the male principle while the loop is representative of the female principle, thus indicating a union of the two. More particularly, it has been said to be representative of the union between Isis and Osiris, and, as their union would initiate the flooding of the Nile, was called the "Key of the Nile." Yet another theory suggests that the loop is representative of the sun rising, while the crossbar represents the horizon and the vertical segment the path of the sun. It is believed to have been associated with a glyph for magical protection, and can thus be interpreted as a good luck talisman. The ankh today has been associated with modern pagan and Wiccan groups.
This particular ankh is sterling sliver and is about two inches in length. Though simplistic, it is a great accessory to accompany any wardrobe. It isn't too tacky, too ornate, or too expensive, and silver does tend to go with everything. Make sure you purchase a chain for this as well.
Not what we expected
This Ankh is definitely of poorer quality than expected. The anhk itself is lightweight, almost like it is plastic coated with silver or silver paint. It is molded, with a mold line around the middle. The "925" mark is on the clasp/bail and there is nothing on the anhk itself to indicate that anything other than the clasp/bail is silver.... Not very impressed.
Good product
I bought this product approximately two months ago. It's been a great necklace, I have received many compliments. A decent piece of jewelry. A silver cleaner fixed the nasty discoloration I had all over it. Good as new.
I'd say 5 stars, but since it won't let me edit the stars, I can only tell you this should be a 5 star review.
This is a decent and good looking piece of jewelry.
