Venus of Cicatrix (Venus of the Well-Healed Scar) Mastectomy Totem Necklace
Now you can commission a Venus of your own that reflects your personal hard-fought battle scars:
Made one at a time per order, these Venus necklaces are intended to commemorate the wearer’s personal fierceness in the face of our common foe, breast cancer. Upon request, the scar pattern can be customized as closely as possible (given the limitations of the materials and scale) to reflect the warrior’s own scar pattern. Venuses can also be made to reflect unilateral mastectomies or reconstruction. Masculine “Mars” versions, non-binary, and body-type variations may be approximated, also. Client will be contacted via email after ordering for consultation on scar description and any other customization types. Questions prior to ordering may be directed here.
