Pendant Pleione
Pleione was an Oceanid nymph in Greek mythology and mother of the Pleiades. She presided over the multiplication of the flocks, fitting, since the meaning of her name is: "to increase in number". She was also known to possess great beauty and is often depicted with beautiful, long, flowing red locks. Pleione was mother to seven daughters, known as the Pleiades. Their names were: Maia, Electra, Taygete, Alcyone, Celaeno, Sterope and Merope. Pleione was the daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, who were a Titan God and Goddess of bodies of water. Among her grandchildren were the god Hermes and the demigod Iasion.
