Description
Ceramic watermelon pendant made by local artist Joy O’Connor (EARTHENJoy). Comes with a 12inch hemp string attached. Can be a pendant, ornament, or, if attached to a safety pin, a pin.
The watermelon is long-used symbol of Palestinian resistance. Between 1967–93 when Israel banned the display of the Palestinian flag, it is said that people would cut open a watermelon which contains all of the colors of the flag (red, white, green, and black), and display it instead.
Dimensions: 1.5 x 0.5 in
