The Star of Life and the Rod of Asclepius make up the symbol for Emergency Medical Services. The Greeks regarded snakes as sacred and used them in healing rituals to honor Asclepius, the demigod of medicine, as snake venom was thought to be remedial and their skin-shedding was viewed as a symbol of rebirth and renewal.
We've hand stamped the EMT symbol onto a 3/8" disc and added a blue crystal. The 16" and 18" necklace lengths make these perfect to layer with one of our bar necklaces or longer pieces.
- Coin and necklace are made with solid sterling silver and the crystal is encased in an alloy metal.
- Silver impressions are blackened.
