Aprēan Earrings and Pendants

Sacred Jewellery of the Aprēans

Aprēan earrings and pendants are pieces of jewellery made from amber, a material of religious significance to the followers of Aprēaq Hūril. They are usually created in the shape of a teardrop and they're worn as pendants using either a silver chain or leather strap which are tied to a silver loop at the tip of the teardrop. Aprēans use these earrings and pendants to express their religious identity and showcase their devotion to Aprēa. In addition to regular folk, various statues and busts of influential religious figures and faithful secular leaders are often adorned with amber pendants to display their eternal devotion.

Use by Non-Aprēans

Prior to the rapid spread of Hillenēq Hūril—the most influential of the Aprēan creeds, amber jewellery was fairly common across the world—especially along the Gulf and the Great Saralian Lakes, where gaining the core materials was fairly simple. As the faith grew, however, non-Aprēans began to hide away their old amber pendants and earrings, fearing that by wearing them they’d be sending out the wrong message to their fellow countrymen. Many of these old pieces of jewellery were sold off to travelling merchants or bartered in exchange for other precious materials that lacked associations to foreign faiths.
