Hades – silver button of the “Gods of Olympus” series

Hades – Greek god of the underworld and the dead. Although he was the brother of Zeus, Poseidon, Demeter, Hestia and Hera, it is not known exactly whether he was an Olympian god, because he left for his Underworld.

His attributes were a scepter and keys, which symbolized his power over the world of the dead, but he is also shown with a cornucopia (which symbolized power over natural resources). He always had Cerberus – a three-headed dog – at his side.

On his forehead, in the crown, he has a black diamond (fi 1.5 mm, 0.02 ct) – a stone that is the opposite of the kingdom of a white diamond.
