ABOUT
"Baobabs, before they grow, start out small." And the Little Prince was right…
The "Small Baobab" bracelet is inspired by the iconic book "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. This piece of jewelry captures the essence of the fantastical encounters and profound lessons contained in this timeless work.
In "The Little Prince," baobabs represent a sense of urgency in facing potential dangers. The little prince must constantly watch for and uproot young baobab shoots to prevent them from overwhelming and destroying his small planet. These gigantic trees symbolize bad habits and persistent ideas that can take over and dominate if allowed to grow unchecked.
Some interpret the baobabs as a subtle allusion to the dangers of Nazism and the necessity of opposing it, while others see them as a universal metaphor for managing internal and external obstacles.
The "Small Baobab" bracelet features a delicate silver chain from which hangs an elegant, finely chiseled silhouette of a baobab tree. This pendant symbolizes both strength and resilience, reminding the wearer of the importance of vigilance and self-control.
Wearing this bracelet is a way to display one’s love for a literary classic, while also reminding oneself of the importance of being vigilant against the invasive aspects of life. It celebrates the simplicity and depth of the teachings of The Little Prince.
This bracelet is perfect for literature lovers, admirers of "The Little Prince," and those looking to wear a piece of jewelry with meaning and history. It serves as a constant reminder of the valuable lessons on vigilance and handling life’s challenges, encapsulated in an elegant and timeless design.
The baobab is about 20 x 7 mm.
It was polished until getting this bright aspect.
The length of the bracelet is 18 cm long.
