DAPHNE Pendant in gold plated polished silver set with a green Agate gemstone

A brilliant ornament of national emblems and coats of arms, the laurel wreath embraces the blue-and-white Greek flag since the first hour of the countrie's liberation –and for good reason. For many centuries, in the ancient times, the laurel was a symbol of redemption, the consecration of some great achievement, but also a sign of wisdom and clairvoyance as the sanctuary of Apollo always trusted the rustling of laurel leaves in order to provide its divine oracle.

The blissful, evergreen laurel leaf which above all is a praise, a tribute, a symbol of salvation and unity, was adopted as a victory sign. It accompanies Hellenism in all its decisive moments, it has been the inspiration of our many poets and the eternal jewel of Greek civilization.

 For the year 2021, the ZOLOTAS House of jewelry will be honoring the anniversary of the Greek Revolution of 1821 with the creation of the "Daphne" collection, inspired by the laurel wreath. A precious charm decorated with evergreen laurel leaves, which will bring peace and prosperity to the world.
