The Rhine Bracelet is inspired by the primordial moments in which the Ring Cycle begins at the beginning of Richard Wagner’s opera Das Rheingold. The three Rhinemaids guard a treasure- gold which can be formed into an all powerful Ring by one who will forsake love forever. Alberich the dwarf accepts the terrible bargain that the startled Rhinemaids were sure no creature would ever consent to.
Beads of blue, green, teal and aqua bring to mind the magical Rhine River, further evoked by crystals in watery colors. Tiny gold metallic beads hint at the powerful gold hiding in the riverbed. A mermaid charm represents the Rhinemaidens who guard the Rheingold, while a heart shaped padlock symbolizes Alberich’s vow to renounce love. The Ring charm represents Alberich’s success at forging the Ring and for us beginning the Ring Cycle.
All "Inspired By..." Series Bracelets come with a card that identifies the symbolism of the charms and colors used.
