More Persepolis inspired jewelry





Here is one more in the Persepolis series. This one shows the Simurgh, a beneficent legendary bird sometimes shown with a dog head. It is a very old motif and is well illustrated in the stories of the Shahnameh, where she comes to the aid of those in dire straits.
