THE MAGIC OF AN ANCESTRAL TRADITION
The maternity necklace is a piece of jewelry that was traditionally worn in the Mayan culture. When rolled gently, it emits a soothing and harmonious crystalline sound; it was nicknamed "Angel Caller" because according to legend, it has the power to summon a guardian angel. The maternity necklace was offered to future mothers as a good luck charm.
After birth, the familiar melody was said to soothe newborns. Mothers would hang it over the cradle or sew it into a comforter to calm their baby.

Relax Mothers-To-Be
Carrying a new life within you is a rich and unique experience. During pregnancy, your lifestyle and your state of mind will directly affect the baby growing inside of you.

BENEFIT N°2
Strengthen Prenatal Bonding
From the 26th week of pregnancy, your baby will become progressively more responsive to familiar sounds in the natural environment – the beating of your heart, your breathing – as well as external sound stimuli such as voices, music and song. The abdominal wall filters out and muffles high-pitched sounds. However, baby can hear low frequency sounds like dad’s voice or low notes.
The tinkling of the maternity necklace has a calming effect on the mother-to-be. The unborn child immediately senses these posit ive vibrations and the melody of the pendant is like a soft whispering in baby’s ear.
