According to legend, the nuns adorned the sword with gold, precious stones, and enamel plaques, transforming it into a ceremonial weapon of great splendor. But its transformation did not end there. In the 15th century, silver inlays depicting Saints Cosmas and Damian were added, along with a Latin inscription: GLADIVS CVM QVO DECOLLATI FVERVNT NOSTRI PATRONI—“The sword with which our patrons were beheaded.” From that moment on, this sacred weapon became known as the Sword of Saints Cosmas and Damian. Yet behind this transformation lies a story woven with pride, devotion, faith, and sorrow.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTwin brothers Cosmas and Damian were physicians who embraced the Christian faith and discovered remedies for diseases deemed incurable at the time. They became renowned among Christian communities and even inspired many to take an interest in the newly emerging religion in Rome. However, their fame could not remain confined to the public; eventually, it reached the ruling authorities, who had outlawed Christianity. In the late 3rd century, during the greatest wave of persecution against Christians under Emperor Diocletian, who ruled over Rome, the twin healer brothers were arrested. According to legend, they endured crucifixion, stoning, and arrows without renouncing their faith, and in the end, they were executed by beheading.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe historical narrative behind the Sword of Saints Cosmas and Damian became a source of inspiration for Astarte. As a retrospective tribute to the tragic fate of Holy Unmercenary Healers, a protective shield was designed to accompany this collection. Just as the spirit of the twin brothers lived on for centuries and materialized in this sword, every piece in this collection was created to become a living legacy on the body of its wearer. These body ornaments, inspired by the spiritual harmony of the Sword of Saints Cosmas and Damian and Astarte’s Shield, are dedicated to fearless souls who are steadfast in their beliefs, pursue their goals with passion and patience, and remain unwavering in their devotion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"ey004-k2","title":"ARC NECKLACE","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigned as a protective crest, this sculptural necklace forms a bold, open V—its arms shaped like compressed hollow tubes, each mirroring the other in precise symmetry.
