Sterling Silver Abalone Inlay Pelican Brooch - Stamped and Tested Sterling Silver - Mexican Jewelry

This listing is for the photographed Sterling Silver Abalone Inlay Pelican Brooch. Beautiful sterling silver pin featuring a pelican with spots filled with abalone inlay. Stamped on the back of the pin is "Hecho En Mexico 925" meaning the item was made in Mexico and is .925 sterling silver. Pelicans have long been associated with Christianity in a now disproven fact about how in times of famine, mother pelicans would pierce their own breasts with their bills to feed their children their blood, symbolizing the kind of self sacrifice Jesus Christ took upon himself. Abalone is believed to symbolize protection, strength, the ocean, renewal, and balance.
