Description
This piece celebrates the notion of �soul mates�; two people who feel a deep connection to each other, whether they are close friends, lovers, partners or family.
At center are two hearts that intersect, cradling a single soul (represented by the ancient Egyptian symbol for �soul�, called an ankh). The two hearts also share a pair of wings � signifying that together they can soar to new heights.
Above, a Celtic knot weaves them together, signifying a steadfast bond and below their roots mingle and embrace, suggesting a shared history and deep connection.
Ivy vines, which intertwine as they grow, represent friendship and loyalty- the twists and turns of long relationships that form lasting emotional ties. Below the ankh is a swirling flame, an image of warmth, vitality and light.
