Phoenix with enamel pendant (sterling silver)

Peter Stone Company - High quality jewellery manufacturer
Holisticshop.co.uk has been trading with Peter Stone Jewellery for many years now because we consistently find their products to be of a high quality. The Peter Stone Company purchases raw silver and produces their own true .925 sterling silver alloy in their own factory. All rings are cast to size and craftsmen cut and inlay each stone for a perfect fit. Every piece of jewellery created is hand polished not tumble polished. The gems they use are of excellent quality and the prices we have always found to be very competitive.

Peter Koslowski had been working on merchant ships since 1983 while living in Sri Lanka and was fortunate to be exposed to an abundance of precious stones and he began to purchase and trade them, as well as silver. During this period he also studied gemology and jewellery making in a number of countries. This then lead to the founding of the Peter Stone Company in 1992 in Bangkok, Thailand, where he still resides.

Phoenix - Phoenix: immortality, resurrection, triumph over adversity
The phoenix is a legendary male bird with gold and red feathers which has the power of immortality. Legend has it that it lives in the desert, but its life has to be renewed every 500 years. When each end beckons, it's said to make its own nest, a bit like a funeral pyre, with cinnamon twigs and sit on it and consumes itself with fire. When the old body was burnt to ashes, a new egg would be laid and the phoenix is reborn. The phoenix also has the capability of rejuvenating itself when hurt or wounded, making it invincible. The notion of the phoenix is recognised in mythology by various cultures, including Chinese, Greek and Egyptian.

As a symbol, the phoenix represents immortality, resurrection and triumph rising up over adversity. Something with a picture of a phoenix on, such as jewellery, would be appropriate for someone who's overcome a difficult time and is getting on with their life.
