II - The High Priestess
II - The High Priestess
The High Priestess is a regal figure, richly garbed and seated on a throne. She holds a book, universal symbol for knowledge, and represents learning, wisdom and deeper understanding. This card symbolizes knowledge, the power of intuition and the feminine.
While the origins of tarot lie in the middle east, the first tarot cards were created in northern Italy during the 15th century, and were used for card games before evolving into tools of divination.
This pendant features an Italian print of one of the earliest examples of historic tarot artwork. The artwork demonstrates the original Italian color scheme of oranges and blues, highlighted by two borders of Swarovski crystals, and is encased in an antiqued bronze bezel.
Stately and mysterious, this pendant weighs over 2 oz/50g and is a stunning focal point for any outfit, modern or historic. Arrives in a Studio Kittie gift box, complete with an adjustable black silk cord, ready to wear.
Dimensions: 48x24mm.
