My Symbol Necklace.....

At one of the 02 shows I bought one of the symbol necklaces. I know, i know, it's not exactly prime stuff, but I wanted a souvenier of "that" summer. What has made me laugh is the reaction I've had from people when I'm wearing it, At the docs this week she asked me as I was leaving "is your necklace a religious symbol, what religion is it?" (bless), and my dentist yesterday said "I like your necklace, but what does it mean"? Finally, a little girlie (about 16) on the supermarket checkout tonight said "your necklace is cool, it's one of those man/woman things isn't it"?.

I have to smile, I did put them all right, but I didn't have several hours to tell them all what it's REALLY about..... I love my necklace.

I have the rose symbol pendent and I get compliments on it everywhere I go! I think it's pretty but I'm extremely surprised at the reactions I get...next to my hair, I don't think I've ever owned anything that's gotten so much praise as this necklace! wink wink

Does it look like the symbol pendant but with a rose on it? I can try to imagine the symbol part of the necklace since I've seen the pictures before.

I get the question if it's some kind of feminist symbol. lol

I'm surprised at how no one so far has known what kind of symbol it is. I thought everyone would be familiar with it by now. neutral

My husband had a symbol necklace and matching earrings made for me several years ago in 14k gold. I love them. I've had similar questions and reactions. I usually just smile but don't say too much. I don't wear them often, but I do enjoy having them and I always wear them to Prince concerts. smile
