Skull (3") Vintage Brooches and Clock Gears - Dragonfly Motif

Dragonflies have been buzzing around the planet for 300 million years. Some of the larger examples had wingspans of over two feet.

Much later, indigenous Americans considered them spirit animals that exemplified purity and the idea of never giving up.

Even closer to our time, they become popular models for many types of jewelry, such as the brooches contained in this skull.

The insects themselves represent deep history. As spirit animals, they represent history. As jewelry, they represent history. And perhaps nothing represents history with more impact than a skull.

Put a symbol of history in your home. Show it off to your friends, and describe its significance. Awe them with the importance of the dragonfly.
