The Touareg cross is steeped in wonderful meaning. Traditionally handed down from father to son, with the words “My son, I give you the four corners of the world because one cannot know where one will die”. Symbolically the four points mark the edges of the world, ensuring that father and son could never be lost to one another. This version is marked with jackal tracks and has chameleon eyes, the symbol of wisdom.
Each torque and pendant is individually crafted by artisan brass workers from the Kibera shanty town on the outskirts of Nairobi. Kibera brass workers are renowned for the expertise and Sally has been proud to support and work with them for several years.
Please note, the torques and pendants are made to order, which may lead to a shipping time of 2 weeks.
