Croi Sliogan Statement Silver Pendant
Croi Sliogan Statement Silver Pendant
Hallmarked Sterling Silver Pendant on Snake Chain
Sliogán in Irish translates as shell. Croi is the Heart. Croi Slogan so, is the shells heart-core.
Sligo, where Martina has lived all her life is the Shelly Place. It was the beloved landscape of poet W B Yeats who, on the grey pavements of London spoke of Sligo as "the deep hearts core" in his iconic work The Lake Isle of Innisfree.
This is the inspiration for our Croi Sliogan collection.
And the secret of this shell motif in hallmarked sterling silver?
The form of a heart the silver shell encircles.

Piece, Chain, Findings all in Hallmarked Sterling Silver
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart's core
From The Lake Isle of Innisfree WB Yeats
