KERBEDANZ – Ladies Esperanza Classique Gold Blue Sapphires Edition

KERBEDANZ – Ladies Esperanza Classique Yellow Gold Blue Sapphires Limited Edition

KERBEDANZ gave to this beautiful jewelry model 

the Spanish name of Hope: Esperanza.

The Hope is an attitude of mind to consider the possibility, or even the belief or the faith in a better future for oneself or for the others. To continue to hope, even when everything collapses around you, is a feeling that perhaps is unique to human beings. In any case, this optimistic attitude of mind can be noticed in the very first invocations to the divine.

In the Greek mythology, in the myth of Pandora, the gods take revenge of mortals by sending them the first women, Pandora, knowing her curiosity pushes her to open the lid of the jar (pithos) where are held prisoners all the evils of humanity. They then escape from the jar and overwhelm mankind, while Pandora, frightened by this act, closes the lid just in time to keep Hope inside.

In the three major theological virtues: Faith, Charity (or love) and Hope, when the lights of the Faith and Charity are extinguished by the breath of the infernal powers, only the light of Hope continues to shine, thus ensuring the future salvation of humanity.
