Alternative Views:

An Amulet featuring a deep carving of the symbol Gye Nyame, completely "3D" with curves and bevels to catch the light.

Gye Nyame, a symbol meaning "I am afraid of none but God" and Nyame biribi wo sor: good things come from above. GYE NYAME "except for God" The symbol of the supremacy of God This unique and beautiful symbol is ever-present in Ghana.

A reflection on the deeply religious character of the Ghanaian people Symbol of the OMNIPOTENCE and the OMNIPRESENCE OF GOD From the Akan aphorism:

"Abode santann yi firi tete; obi nte ase a onim ne ahyease, na obi ntena ase nkosi ne awie,

GYE NYAME."
Literal translation: This great panorama of creation dates back to time immemorial; no one lives who saw its beginning and no one will live to see its end, EXCEPT GOD. Akan: SUPREME BEING, the CREATOR who they refer to by various names: OBOADEE, NYAME, ONYANKOPON TWEREAMPON.

This is a larger, heavier version of the Gye Nyame Amulet has a "top bail" for your chain or cord to pass through, giving the pendant the illusion of it "floating" as you wear it.
