Alligators are more closely related to dinosaurs than to other modern reptiles. The species, scientists say, is more than 150 million years old and managed to avoid extinction 65 million years ago when the dinosaur died off. They have gone through very little evolutionary change since then. Alligators are a rare success story of an endangered animal not only saved from extinction but now thriving. They symbolize ancient wisdom, primal instincts, and prosperity. This unique Art Deco inspired charm features a gator partially submerged in a river. Wear it to tap into your own instincts and good fortune. Please note that our enamel "water" effect is subject to the color of the metal underneath. The enamel appears more green when on gold and blue when on silver.
