The Ouroboros is an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon swallowing its own tail and forming a circle. The Ouroboros has been important in religious and mythological symbolism, representing self-reflexivity or cyclicality, especially in the sense of something constantly re-creating itself, the eternal return, and other things perceived as cycles that begin anew as soon as they end. This beautifully carved 14k gold pendant was created with impeccable craftsmanship by Colorado jeweler Jerry Gehringer and oxidized to accentuate the detail.
