{"product_id":"ec30396-3-agt-adad-sterling-silver-pendant-with-ancient-near-eastern-steatite-amulet-and-blue-sapphire","title":"Adad Sterling Silver Pendant with Ancient Near Eastern Steatite Amulet and Blue Sapphire","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis pendant is named after Adad - the Mesopotamian god of storms, thunder, and rain, who held both destruction and fertility in the same hand. The stone at its center is an authentic ancient amulet carved from dark steatite, part of a group of nine amulets rooted in Near Eastern apotropaic traditions of the first millennium BCE. It is shield-shaped - not by accident, but by intention - a form that announces its purpose before the carved figure is even seen. A striding animal with a lightning bolt rendered beside it fills the surface in bold incised relief, schematic and charged with symbolic force. \n\nSourced from a private European collection, acquired on the art market in the late 20th century. \n\nSet in 925 sterling silver plated with black ruthenium and 18K gold, with a natural oval-cut blue sapphire - deep and still, a stone long tied to sky, storm, and divine clarity. \n\nThis is a singular edition - handmade by the designer himself with no second copy in existence. For those who know that storms are sacred. \n\nPLEASE NOTE: This pendant is made with an authentic ancient artifact and natural gemstones that may exhibit cracks, scratches, and color irregularities - these are not flaws, but marks of authenticity and age. Gemstone colors may appear differently depending on lighting conditions; please refer to the model photo for the most accurate representation. \n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Split --\u003e\u003cp\u003eMetal: \u003cspan\u003e925 Silver, Nickel-Free, Hypoallergenic, Safe for Sensitive Skin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGemstones: \u003cspan\u003eSapphire\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlating: \u003cspan\u003eBlack Ruthenium, 18K Gold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Split --\u003e\u003cp\u003eWidth \u003cspan\u003e27 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLength \u003cspan\u003e45 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeight \u003cspan\u003e13.81 g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GERMAN KABIRSKI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51365712560406,"sku":"EC30396\/3(AGT)","price":910.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/2599\/4801\/files\/ec30396-3-agt-adad-sterling-silver-pendant-with-ancient-near-eastern-steatite-amulet-and-blue-sapphire-1240992750.jpg?v=1780273808","url":"https:\/\/germankabirski.com\/products\/ec30396-3-agt-adad-sterling-silver-pendant-with-ancient-near-eastern-steatite-amulet-and-blue-sapphire","provider":"GERMAN KABIRSKI","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
