Persephone and Hades Pin

This shiny gold enamel pin symbolizes the kidnap of Persephone, daughter of Zeus and Demeter, by Hades, god of the underworld. Hades tricks Persephone into eating some pomegranate seeds, the food of the dead. As a result, she can spend only six months out of the year with her mother; the other six months she is destined to spend in the underworld with Hades. In greek mythology, the return of Persephone from the underworld symbolized the return of life in the spring.
