Celebrated in this collection are the stars and stripes synonymous with the U.S. flag. Crafted in premium stainless steel, in two tone finish this collection of bracelet and pendant is subtle patriotism. On June 14, 1777 the Continental Congress passed the first Flag Act, which said that the flag would be made up of thirteen alternating red and white stripes and thirteen white stars on a blue field. Stars have been added to the flag as new states join the union. Stars are considered a symbol of the heavens and the divine goal to which man has aspired from, with the stripe symbolic of the rays of light emanating from the sun.
