Im Hotep,

I am wondering if any villagers wear religious jewelry. If so, what is it, what is it made of, where is it worn and what does it mean? Thank you.

No I do not wear jewelry. Not even a wristwatch.Any [external]ornamentation of the body besides clothing (and even that can be taken too far)-IMO, is (a)vain (b)egocentric (c) biased against one's neighbor and onesself (d) an effort to make up forinternal appealor convictionone lacks (d) otherwise a turn off, hence keeping such things in mind I do not even bother with women who spend too much time or effort decorating themselves.

Thanks Hrnopi.



I'm kind of surprised because I see a lot of crosses on the models that many villagers choose for avatars. Was just curious to see the spectrum of various religious jewelry.

I do wear religious jewelry, although it is not usually visible to anyone unless I'm wearing short sleeves.

I don't wear any jewelry at all except maybe a wristwatch. Although, I have been contemplating having this trinity earring made since my left ear is pierced. When I say "trinity", I am not talking in the Christian sense.

I'm online about to buy an Anhk, been trying to decide on which one to get after seeing a few. Not sure if I should get one in copper, pewter or gold but I've gone for the pewter for now cause I'm broke, want to make my own... can't seem to find any but I was looking for a orthodox type Anhk.

Don't wear jewlery all of the time only every now and then.

Greetings Rebel-Lion, Im Hotep



You should try Gem-In-Eye Jewellers on Bradbury Street in Dalston.

He makes stuff and you should be able to get what you want from him. Just type in Gem-In-Eye in google and you should see his website and contact details.
