This is a fun and timeless piece of handcrafted Irish jewelry. If you are a lover of nature and animals this cute Hedgehog is perfect.
Irish sterling silver which is hallmarked at the Irish Assay Office located in Dublin Castle and a genuine, highly polished cabochon of Connemara Marble.
This fabulously detailed Irish Hedgehog was designed and handcrafted here in our workshop in Ireland. Take a look at how the Cubic Zirconia stone gleam on his back.
He or she is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who pays it close attention. Known a touch unflatteringly as ‘An Gráinneog’ in Irish, meaning little ugly one, here in Ireland we regard hedgehogs with great fondness . Their quirky habits and their helpful taste for garden pests and gentle nature make them a firm favourite with animal lovers. They are also credited with predicting the weather. A hedgehog seen out of hibernation on St. Brigid’s Day, (1st February), is said to be a good sign of pleasant weather to come!
Presented on an 18″ chain in a beautiful hinged gift box.
