As one of the oldest known gemstones — with use dating back thousands of years to ancient Egypt, Rome, and Greece — they've long been associated with passion, vitality, and protection (particually the Red garnets). It feels only fitting to pair such a stone with one of nature's most powerful symbols. I\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI've set this garnet into a bear claw: Bear claws are potent symbols of strength, protection, and primal courage. In many Indigenous and spiritual traditions, they represent the bear's fierce will to survive and its deep connection to the earth. A bear claw symbolizes resilience — the ability to face adversity head-on — and serves as a talisman of healing and inner power, much like the bear itself, which hibernates to heal and emerges renewed. The claw, a part of the beast that defends and gathers, reminds us to stand our ground, defend what matters, and move through the world with grounded confidence. Whether worn as a charm or marked in sigil form, the bear claw calls on the spirit of fierce guardianship and deep, instinctive wisdom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe name of this peice (Artio)comes from: A Gaulish bear goddess whose worship spread widely across Celtic Europe.She embodied the full nature of the bear: its raw power and wildness alongside its nurturing, protective instincts and its sacred cycle of hibernation, withdrawal, and renewal. (Just last week my 95 year old dad sent me a reel about the bear, and how when humans \"hiberate\" sit\/meditate in sileice we renew.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 34g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCircumference:\u003c\/b\u003e 21cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.5cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Smith \u0026 Sun","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56814599340412,"sku":null,"price":188.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0259\/5645\/0375\/files\/DSC3455.jpg?v=1779906089","url":"https:\/\/www.smithandsun.co.uk\/products\/bracelet-one-1","provider":"Smith \u0026 Sun","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
