Nike is the Greek goddess of victory. It is said that "Nike flew around battlefields rewarding the victors with glory and fame". Swoosh!, probably in lightning speed. (Chuckles.) Anyway, I was inspired by the Olympics and decided to create this necklace - an original artisan jewelry.

10 Interesting Olympics Trivia
Spectacular! Dazzling! Sensational! What a magnificent opening ceremony for the 2012 London Olympics! Thanks to YouTube, aside from the 2012 Olympics, I was able to see again the opening ceremonies of past Summer Olympics. The opening ceremonies have evolved into an art form over the years. Thus, the Olympic opening ceremony has become much of an artistic expression, as well as an extravaganza anticipated by millions of people all over the world.
Did you know that it was on this 2012 London Olympics opening ceremony, that for the first time the Olympic Cauldron was lighted by seven (7) people? The cauldron is traditionally lighted by just one torch-bearer. Did you also know that the first Olympic Cauldron was lighted in 1928 at the Amsterdam Olympics? Would you like to know more trivia about the Olympics?
