Equally enthralling, in my estimation, are the Paleolithic European nude female figurines, depicted with exaggerated characteristics like large breasts and bellies, which are believed to be early fertility or mother-goddess emblems. These figurines, such as one named “Venus of Willendorf,” actually predate the goddess Venus by many thousands of years. Part of what I love about them is their celebration of the natural female body, and its ample proportions - something to be celebrated rather than shamed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eThis pendant is my abstract homage to Venus of Willendorf and other Paleolithic figurines, as a celebration of the abundance provided by the female body\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul data-rte-list=\"default\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eHand carved and cast using traditional lost-wax casting techniques\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eSustainably handmade in solid, recycled 14k gold\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eStrung on a 20” French cable chain\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003ePendant measures 1x2cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Talisman Fine Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750697959714,"sku":"SQ9310925","price":4805.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1002\/6886\/7874\/files\/talisman-soft-body-venus1.webp?v=1780371013","url":"https:\/\/talismanfinejewelry.co\/products\/talisman-fine-jewelry-soft-body-venus-necklace","provider":"Talisman Fine Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
