Triple Bear Triskele Pendant- a Celtic Design

Description

As a totem, Bear is an ancient symbol of the Earth Mother, patient and accepting. She holds the power of the unconscious and rebirth. Bear mixes dreams with practicality, and is renowned for her contained strength. She is a fond mother to her cubs, and fierce in their defense.

Bear is also associated with King Arthur, and his commitment to chivalry and fairness.

This original design contains three Bears, similar in pose but with three different types of Celtic art as their body embellishments. Between the three bears are arrangements of berries- a Bear's favorite food!

I carved the original design in wax and cast it in silver. Each medallion is cast in sterling silver using the lost wax process and a mold made from my original master. The detail is accented with patination using liver of sulfur (a traditional technique that darkens the metal), then the surfaces are hand-polished to a soft, brushed shine. A sterling split ring is included to receive a chain or cord.

The medallion is 1.25 inch (32 mm) in diameter.

The third picture shows one of my Triskele designs incorporated into a bracelet. Please email or convo me if you are interested in me making one with this design.

Pins, bracelets, and other forms are possible; please convo or e-mail me with your request.

I also have this design available in bronze.

Each Bear Triskele comes in a small box and includes a cord, an anti-tarnish square, and a small flyer about the design.

Other payment options available; please email me for details. Shipped via Priority Mail with delivery confirmation in the USA. If you do not live in the United States, please email me to discuss shipping arrangements and costs.
