Sterling silver hedgehog

This beautiful hedgehog features a sizeable sterling silver hedgehog with an adorable feature tummy of Baltic cognac amber! The hedgehog hangs from a solid silver hallmarked bail and is suspended from an 18 inch sterling silver chain.

Baltic amber is found on the shores of the Baltic Sea and is created from fossilised tree resin dating back to the neolithic period. Amber is said to balance the emotions, attract good luck, eliminate fear, relieve a headache and clear the mind. 

The Greeks and Romans revered the hedgehog’s ability to knock grapes from a vine and pick them up with their spines, toothpick style. They made them an emblem of intelligence, ingenuity, and cleverness.
