Based on a gilded silver find from Ostergotland, Sweden, possibly depicting the goddess Freya. I have hand carved a wax model (inventing a new face since the original is worn down) which is then cast and finished by hand. Gold plating is available if you'd like it to look how the original would have looked when it was new. Gold plating will add an additional week or so to our estimated 2 week production time.
Please note, you are buying a handmade piece of jewellery and we will not always have it in stock and I may require some time to make it.
If you want this in other materials such as gold please email me for a quote at caledonianforge@gmail.com We are always open to alter and change any of our pieces to suit your tastes. In the listing the piece might look darker than the finished piece. We artificially darken our silver pieces with liver of sulphur so that the details will show up in photographs but as standard the finished piece will be shiny and polished. If you'd prefer us to darken it then please let us know and we will happily do this for you.
This has been carved by myself from wax and cast in high quality by Jewellery casting Scotland then finished with a mixture of power tools and traditional hand tools like files and saws. Available with a free choice of waxed cotton or leather cord. We also have a separate listing with silver chains here if you desire.
All our packaging is 100% paper. No plastic at all.
Please note, the precious metal options will take an additional two weeks as by law they need to be hallmarked.
