Vintage ornate pendant with filigree back and golden centre with vintage keys and lock on copper chain, hung from vintage golden chain.
The Babylonian goddess Ishtar bears the keys that open the locks of heaven. Her counterpart Cybele locks up the earth each winter and opens it to growth and flowering every spring. Human consciousness perpetually searches for the key that will give it access to the object of its longing- self discovery, peace of mind, the enigmatic heart of the beloved.
