[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 431591, member: 2844"]Double spirals are to be found in most cultures, which is why it is important to look at the entire piece. They often originated as symbols of interconnectedness between different worlds or realities. But symbolism changes as a culture changes. Old meanings are forgotten and new interpretations made, or symbols are just seen as decorative. That was my advice to Chopin in a private conversation, and circumstantial clues pointed to Scythian as well. I will not go into it any further, at his request.[/QUOTE]
