Blue Sapphire is a precious gemstone associated with wisdom, knowledge and insight. Considered sacred across many cultures, its celestial blue hues mirror the night sky. Forever associated with loyalty and commitment, sapphires are traditionally used as an expression of love and devotion.

The moon embodies feminine energy, nurturing intuition and emotion. Symbolic of life's cyclical nature, it waxes and wanes signifying change and transformation. A light in the darkness, it offers guidance, wisdom and hope.

Throughout the ages, the star symbol has shone as a powerful symbol of guidance, enlightenment, and protection across cultures. It represents the guiding light of divine inspiration, the illumination of spiritual wisdom, and the protective power of the divine.

An archetypal symbol steeped in rich history and cultural significance, the circle embodies unity and completeness. Perpetually in motion, this motif evokes the essence of eternity itself.

Temple of the Sun uses only recycled sterling silver 925 as the base metal for their vermeil gold and silver jewelry. Vermeil jewelry is made by laying a layer of 18K gold over a sterling silver base, making it high quality and durable, with a thickness of at least 2.5 microns. This thickness makes it more resistant to tarnishing and fading than plated gold jewelry (which has a minimum thickness of 0.5 microns).

Jewellery care:
Remove jewellery before engaging in activities that may cause damage. Jewellery can be gently scrubbed with a soft-bristled or baby-sized toothbrush coated in warm, soapy water to dislodge any dirt.

To ensure the gold lustre remains golden and bright it is important to remove your necklace each time we apply makeup, cosmetics, shower and swim. Gold vermeil, like all non-solid gold, is designed to fade over time.
