Web sites selling Jewelry

Multi-faith jewelry promoting religious diversity and tolerance:

"Renaissancewiz" at Ganoskin, a gem and jewelry resource on the Internet, once challenged visitors to The Orchid List forum to suggest a universal interfaith symbol. Their responses are fascinating; various folks suggested:

	an infinity symbol placed diagonally in a heart -- meaning infinite love.
	a butterfly -- symbolizing peace, grace and good luck.
	a circle: a basic interfaith symbol.
	two hands cupped, gently cradling a butterfly.
	a lotus.
	a sunrise.
	a leaf.
	A winged heart -- a Sufi symbol.
