Heroes and Healing pendant
This unique and meaningful pendant was design dedicated to my beloved son Ryan Anthony Gartner (Army Soldier) April 11,1987 – February 1, 2011. The inspiration for this pendant comes from our heroes whose lives were sacrificed due to military conflicts. The pendant was designed to be worn open or closed. When open, the Healing powers of the crystals are released.
An unusual geode shape with a grenade color, was selected to represent war. A bloodstone chalcedony forms a ring on the border edge of the geode, symbolizing the loss of so many lives. Tiny quartz crystals fill the inner cavity of the geode, representing the healing of our family and our country. The geode is embraced in 18k yellow gold with its outline twisted into a cross shape. The cross expresses our hope and prayed for peace. Eight round brilliant colorless diamonds were chosen to signify the “strength and courage” of our heroes.
