Handcrafted original Fox jewelry. The Fox is known as a noble leader and protector for it is clever, focused, and adaptable. Eyes fixed, tail pointed, and ears open, the fox is an exceptional hunter. In the Celtic Realm, the fox was honored for its wisdom and guidance in the spirit world. Determined and resourceful, the fox motivates us to use our surroundings to our advantage and to hunt down our desires. The magical shape-shifting Fox is a staple of Japanese folklore where they are portrayed as intelligent and faithful guardians, friends and lovers. In these stories the fox possesses magical abilities and is respected as an animal of good omen and the larger the fox’s tail, the older, wiser and more powerful it is. Called Kitsune in Japanese, the fox is closely associated with Inari, a Shinto spirit, sometimes depicted as a beautiful fox-woman. The fox symbolizes creativity, resourcefulness, longevity and protection.
The Ark Collection reflects our desire to connect with these animal totems and carry with us the qualities they embody.
