The Necklace

Description

Found this little inspiration moments ago, scanned and cleaned it up a bit.

I designed this as a necklace/choker YEARS ago, it was the inspiration for a short story I wrote and lost. Something about a necklace that had been handed down from woman to woman, bringing the knowledge of its previous wearers to the next. But it was a serious peice of work, in that it had developed its own soul, and sought to use women to attain greater influence and knowledge. The heroine of the short story found it and followed its direction, it thought it had the woman under its control but she was much more intellegent and powerful than it. Instead she used the knowledge it granted her to track it's previous owners to its maker, and upon the grave of the man who created it, she shattered it into a thousand shards. See- the man created it for a woman whom he loved, and she loved him, but believed herself unworthy of his affection as she was unlearned. The day after she was given the necklace she was found dead in a library, the Great Library to be exact, a place where women and unlearned ones were forbidden... The necklace went from woman to woman still trying to become worthy of the man's love by gaining knowledge, but in the end it lost sight of love, and its desire became obession and its demise. The last image is of the shards forming the written word "LOVE" on the grave, the woman had learned to write and finally was able to show him...

I would love if this was an actual necklace, I'd totally buy it!

Alas my art skills end with the pen...
