Bola, pregnancy jewelry or angel ring - dear child has many names. This necklace is decorated with a large ball, approximately 18 mm in diameter, which inside has a small bell that emits a bright and beautiful ping. The idea is that when the mother moves, the necklace emits a sound that the baby will hear. After birth, the child is supposed to recognize the sound and feel secure. It got the name angel jewelry after a saying that says that the sound of the tinkling should help the child's guardian angel find it. The necklace weighs no less than 17 grams and the associated chain snaps at 60 cm.
