Aphrodite is the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty. Through her starry eyes, golden Aphrodite sees a world full of unabashed love, sparking undeniable connections, passionate encounters, and romances that last a lifetime.
No heart can help but succumb to the touch of Aphrodite. She incites delirious desire in new relationships, comfort and deep understanding in old ones, and unites souls in true love with passion, excitement, adoration, respect, support, and tenderness.
She brings out the beauty in everything — a sculpted shoulder, a heart stopping profile, the glow of candlelight on tumbling locks of hair, the curve of the small of a woman’s back. Aphrodite’s divinity makes all of the little beautiful things impossible to miss.
Deeply in love with someone who did not return her feelings, Sappho wrote her famed hymn to Aphrodite, in which she begs the goddess for relief from her anguish. Even in the throes of heartbreak, followers of Aphrodite know that love is the only true meaning that we all share, and that the wonder and beauty of it all is worth it, every single time.
This molten gold medallion is a representation of Aphrodite rising from the waves in Botticelli's famed work. Around half the size of the original Aphrodite Medallion, she is cast in 100% solid gold and can be purchased with or without a chain.

About Solid Gold ✨
Solid gold is for those who buy once and buy well. It will not tarnish, fade, or degrade; worn daily for decades, it only grows more beautiful. It is the right choice if you want a piece that lasts a lifetime or becomes an heirloom.
Gold has appreciated steadily for centuries and retains intrinsic value: it can always be melted down and reborn as something new. It is adornment that is also an investment.
Our solid gold pieces are cast using the ancient lost wax method and are never hollow. Every gram is 100% certified recycled, and every piece is made by hand in New York City.
About Gold Vermeil
Gold Vermeil, pronounced ver-may, is a french term for a style of gold plating that is regulated by the federal government. Unlike "gold plated" jewelry, vermeil must always be on a solid 925 sterling silver base - rather than brass - with at least 2.5 microns thickness of gold. This is 3 times thicker than normal gold plating.
This makes vermeil a longer lasting product than gold plated jewelry, as well as more valuable because it's composed entirely of precious metals.
