St Patrick and Snake Necklace

This necklace is perfect for St. Patrick's Day, especially if you just want a touch of green. It makes a great gift for Confirmation or any occasion for someone with a devotion to the great saint. The chain is available in lengths of 18in and 24in and contains a silver colored snake charm and a St. Patrick medal, made in Italy with the words "PRAY FOR US" on the back. It also has a green faceted glass bead.

St. Patrick is the patron of Ireland, engineers, and paralegals, and is often invoked against snake bites. According to legend, Ireland has no snakes because St. Patrick banished them from the island.
