I love this design!!! I have received so many compliments and questions about this unique and beautiful piece! I love jewelry with a story and this is a great one to share.
This is how it came about…..
A woman named, Sally Short, took the letters in the phrase, “Love is all you need” and superimposed them on top of each other in a rectangle shape and added a peace sign.
Sally sent off the design to be made into a pendant. When it returned, the family was looking at it and noticed other letters. They discovered every letter and every number! How cool! When you give this to someone or wear it yourself, you can spell any word or name you wish! It has a special message for anyone wearing it, but can mean something to everyone.
This would make such a great gift for a couple, it’s a very unisex design, looking great on a man or a woman. What better message than love?

Christina – xristya@rock.com – I learned that since Merida and Dane were Sally's children, she combined their names into Meridane for her company!
Christina – xristya@rock.com – If I won it would be for myself and would say Xristia, my name in Ukrainian, affectionate form, that I was called as a child!
I love this necklace. I found out when I read about the family that: Given that the symbol contains every letter of the alphabet, it can mean ANYTHING to ANYBODY at ANYTIME. It gives people the ability to create their own personal message, HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT.
If I win I'm keeping it for me! (But if my daughter wants it and whines, then I'll probably give it to her. But don't tell her. Shhhh…)

fun fact:
Meridane Design is a family owned business that was created when Sally Short serendipitously superimposed each letter of the phrase ‘LOVE IS ALL U NEED' on top of one another and then added a peace sign to complete the design.
it would be for me and spell *LOVE*

So sweet the way she named it. I subscribed just now and I love the LOVE AND PEACE pendant. It would definitely be for me, I wore those kind of things years ago (yes, I'm dating myself, but I don't CARE), I still feel the same way. So glad I found this! Thank you so much, SandySue.
I learned that they sell the symbol to men and women ages 9 to 90! It's a unisex, multilingual, interactive piece of jewelry with infinite possibilities.
