Description: GRIFFIN SILVER PENDANT Griffin Pendant Handcrafted in 925 Sterling Silver - Guardian and Protector - Ancient Greek Motif The griffin, griffon, or gryphon is a legendary creature with the body, tail, and back legs of a lion; the head and wings of an eagle; and sometimes an eagle's talons as its front feet. Because the lion was traditionally considered the king of the beasts, and the eagle the king of the birds, by the Middle Ages, the griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. Since classical antiquity, griffins were known for guarding treasures and priceless possessions. Meaning and Symbolism of the Griffin Symbol While it is more likely that the griffin was a creation of myths in different cultures, it continues to be a popular symbol. A Symbol of Strength and Valor – The griffin was perceived as a powerful creature since it has the head of a falcon—a bird of prey with sharp talons—and body of a lion, which is regarded as the king of the beasts. Together, the creature was considered doubly powerful. A Symbol of Power and Authority – In some cultures, people view the griffin as a hunter or a predator. This gives it a sense of authority and power. A Guardian and Protector – The griffin was often depicted as a guardian of secretly buried wealth. People saw it as a creature that warded off evil and malignant influences, offering protection. A Symbol of Prosperity – Since griffins are often portrayed as gold-guarding creatures, they eventually gained the reputation as a symbol of wealth and status.
