Chai and Star of David Necklace, Silver & Opal

There is no doubt that this unique piece of Star of David jewelry is going to catch the eye. At first glance, it may appear to simply be another take on this most ancient of Jewish symbols. However, on closer inspection, it is also a Chai pendant, representing the Jewish value to life and hope. As such, this piece seamlessly fuses two powerful emblems in one stunning piece of Jewish jewelry.
Crafted from quality sterling silver and an attractive blue and green opal, this pendant is visually stunning. The opal is fashioned to fill the open spaces of the silver Star of David, which is shaped uniquely to encompass the Chai emblem. Measuring 12.8mm x 28.6mm, it is just the right size to be a noticeable yet unobtrusive piece of Israeli jewelry.
The Star of David has become a central theme to Jewish jewelry given its inextricable link to the Jewish people, which it has symbolized since ancient times. However, in this pendant, it is uniquely combined with another timeless symbol, the Hebrew word Chai, meaning life. As such, this piece of jewelry encompasses the ancient Jewish symbol of the past together with an evocative emblem of hope for the future.
