We’re celebrating Pisces season with our Pearl Carpa Fish Necklace. Designed by Sandra, a proud Pisces, this piece captures the sensitive, creative, and intuitive energy of the Pisces star sign. Featuring freshwater pearls, linked to Pisces through their connection to the moon and water, as well as handcrafted glass, the necklace embodies the fluidity and depth of this water sign.
The fish is the motif of the Pisces star sign, and this necklace is personal to Sandra, as it honours her Spanish heritage, with Carpa Fish commonly found along coastal regions, and reflects her love for the symbolism of historical fish ornaments.The pendant, strung on a gold chain, uniquely blends history, nature, and astrology into a fresh wearable design.
