  • Details
    The Pentacle is a symbol of a star encased in a circle. Always with 5 points (one pointing upward), each has its own meaning. The upward point of the star is representative of the spirit. The other four points all represent an element; earth, air, fire, and water. It is worn as a ward of protection and as a focal point to connect with the spiritual realm. Additionally the binding circle of this talisman is shaped from 5 Fibonacci spirals, which represent the golden ratio and the mathematical constant for form in the natural world. These elements combined into a single piece signify balance not only between the elemental forces but within the natural world and self. The spirals of the outer ring rise above and overlay the pentacle on one side, this offers a completely different view from the opposite side where the pentacle is more apparent.

    Positioned above and around this pentacle is a dragon either enfolding the pentacle protectively in its wings or poised above it ready to attack. This guardian spirit is created in 100% Sterling silver with mechanical connections which allow the pentacle and wings to rotate 90 degrees. This pendant can be worn with the wings in either position, when the wings are fully extended in their open position they can be locked in place with hooks onto the included 16-18 inch stainless steel chain. These hooks also serve as fasteners to keep the wings in position on top of the pentacle when in the closed position. When closed the wings are carefully positioned to reveal the stone mounted at the center of the pentacle. The eyes of the dragon are 2mm round cut Peridot flush set directly into the metal. If you have a preference for different stones to be used in the eyes I can substitute almost any 2mm stones you may prefer, just include a note in your order when you checkout.

    I offer three styles/ metal combinations for the pentacle itself. The first is 100% Sterling Silver, the second is a multi-metal fabrication with a Bronze Spiral-ring (shown in the pictures). The Third option is also a multi-metal construction and features a 14k Gold Spiral Ring. All 3 styles of this pentacle feature a 14k Gold Bezel setting for the 5mm round cut faceted stone. Choose from a variety of available stone options or no stone setting at all.

    The parts for each of these jewelry pieces begin as a unique wax model which is then cast in Sterling Silver, Bronze, or 14K Gold using the lost wax casting method. The stone settings and mechanical components are fabricated by hand. The metal components are then fitted together and soldered or riveted in place. After the stones are set the piece is finished by hand. After all finishing work is completed it is coated in a layer of black patina to emphasize the recessed portions of the design then the raised portions are brought back to a high polish in contrast. All of the work from carving the wax models to casting the pieces and finishing is performed by me in house at the Drakenforge studio.
