Gye Nyame-supremacy Of God

The Adinkra symbols express various themes that relate to the history, beliefs and philosophy of the Asante. They mostly have rich proverbial meaning since proverbs play an important role in the Asante culture.The use of proverbs is considered as a mark of wisdom.

Other Adinkra symbols depict historical events, human behavior and attitudes, animal behavior, plant life forms and shapes of objects.

The meaning of this symbol is "Except by the Grace of God".

This pendant is part of the collection of Adinkra symbols, itself part of my African-inspired collection of jewelry.
