Pentagram necklaces made of silver, bronze and other materials
One of the oldest and most widespread symbols is the pentagram. Drawing the diagonals of a regular pentagon creates a five-pointed star. When the pentagram is enclosed in a circle, it is called a pentacle. It is considered a symbol of protection against evil. In the past, it was believed that spirits could not cross a threshold marked with a pentagram.
Today, when you see a pentagram, you think of occultism or esotericism, and that's probably where it belongs. Inverted, the symbol is often worn in the Gothic scene as the pentagram of the devil, a symbol of the horned beast.
Anyone who wears a chain with a pentagram these days may associate something different with it, believe in magical powers or protection from misfortune, be a Freemason, witch or Christian, or simply like the simple but beautiful symbol.
