Vintage 18k Yellow Gold Detailed Coiled Cobra Snake Wrap Wide Band Ring
Snakes in jewellery often symbolize a variety of meanings and hold significant cultural and historical symbolism. Traditionally, snakes are seen as symbols of transformation, rebirth, and eternity due to their ability to shed their skin. This cyclical process represents renewal and the continuous cycle of life. In ancient Egypt, snakes were revered as symbols of royalty and deity protection, often associated with the goddess Wadjet. In Greek and Roman mythology, they symbolize wisdom and healing, linked to Asclepius, the god of medicine. In modern jewellery, snakes are appreciated for their elegant and fluid forms, making them timeless motifs that convey both mystery and meaning.
