Women's Metallic Albatross Necklace. Highly Polished, Tarnish Resistant On A Solid Chain

The ideal talisman for global travellers. A solid, tarnish-resistant sterling silver portrait of the magnificent albatross that spends much of its life soaring above the vast southern oceans. With recorded wingspans exceeding 12 feet, the albatross is among the world's largest flying birds. They are known to form lifelong pair bonds, making them a symbol of loyalty and enduring love. Yachtsmen and women navigating the remote southern latitudes have long reported these great birds following their vessels for days at a time. Historically, the albatross was regarded as a fellow traveller by seafarers, who believed it brought good fortune and represented the delicate balance between humankind and the sea. This pendant may be periodically cleaned with a mild detergent and soft cloth. Made using recycled sterling silver, free of cadmium, or other harmful materials. Colour: metallic
