Equine jewelry is a timeless way to show your admiration or passion for horses. Being near horses is calming, empowering, and has therapeutic effects. Horse jewelry is a meaningful way to keep a little bit of their presence with you. This article delves into horses and equine-inspired jewelry, including Park City Jewelers' line of custom horse jewelry.
History
Horses have played an essential role in human history, helping us travel long distances, tame the land, and fight in countless wars. Their vital role and sheer beauty have made them important figures in many cultures' art, folklore, and mythology.
For example, Native American cultures, referred to as “people of the horse,” saw horses not as possessions but as spiritual companions that humans belonged to. This deep bond symbolized virility, speed, power, dependability, hard work, friendship, bravery, courage, and freedom.
Connection
Our connection to horses has been thousands of years in the making. Dogs were domesticated about 14,000 years ago, while horses about 6,000 years ago. Similar to dogs, horses are pack animals that live in hierarchies.
Usually, one stallion protects the herd and fathers the foals, while one old, experienced mare leads the herd. This social nature allows horses to thrive in groups, understand human emotions, and communicate through eyes, ears, snorts, and whinnies.
They often help people recover from trauma or disabilities, including emotional traumas like abuse and drug addiction, and physical maladies such as traumatic brain injury and cerebral palsy.
Horse Jewelry
Our horse and equestrian line of jewelry and charms features unique pieces you won’t find anywhere else. Our jewelry designers have painstakingly crafted each piece to be as stunning as the animals they represent.
These works of art are featured in sterling silver and gold, with many offering a gorgeous two-toned white and yellow gold or white and rose gold look. Park City Jewelers also specializes in custom jewelry, and our team of talented jewelry artisans will gladly help you create a piece to commemorate your love for horses.
