Judith of Bethulia ensured the defeat of the Assyrian army, by beheading the general Holofernes. She feigned fleeing in fear, and turned his desire for her to her advantage. Judith has been depicted by many artists either cutting off his head as he lays, or carrying away the head with her maid. Judith is viewed as an icon of women triumphing over tyrannical men.
This piece was named by Claire via our Instagram competition! We like to imagine Judith wearing this necklace as a trophy of her victory.
This listing is for the skull pictured, set with a kite cut purple spinel and includes a 40cm sterling silver chain.
The Victory of Judith can also be made to order with your choice of gemstone. Please email me for available gems and a quote x
