Description: Siam was the former name for the country of Thailand until 1939. The heritage of Siam jewelry revolved around the Buddhist version Ramayana, named the national epic of Ramakien. This epic story is considered a classic tale of good triumphing over evil and is a source of inspiration for many religions and cultures. The brooch in this listing represents a warrior and, I believe, is called Hanuman or Sugriva, also known in the epic as the Monkey King. This brooch has been handcrafted with Sterling silver (.925) and features a black enamel detail called nielloware. The artisan carved the Sterling and then baked the black enamel into the details. Each aspect of Niello jewelry includes symbolism of the epic story, which adds meaning to the high craftmanship of each piece. The item in this listing shows the symbolism of the lotus flower (being held to his nose), which represents loyalty and spiritual dedication, the sword represents knowledge and power, and the trident is a symbol of the warrior spirit. This brooch also has a C-Clasp closure device on the back and it functions beautifully. The stories that I tell are as true as I can make them in this day and age but I hope that they speak to the forgotten history of fashion and design through the snapshot of each collectible item that I list.
