Loki Pendant
Sorry, currently out of stock
Design
This design is based on a stone from the 8th century (still viewable in the Kirkby Stephen Parish Church) that depicts Loki bound at the wrists with large curling horn-like shapes protruding from his head. Many can recall from Norse mythology the story of the Aesir and their decision to lock this trickster god away to endure a gruesome fate at the hands of a poisonous serpent. It is thought that this carved stone depicts this tale, and the god of mischief himself.
Cast by Sean of Sacred Knot Tattoo in Cornish pewter, the original piece was hand carved by Dyrs Hjarta Art.
Material & Make
Each piece of jewellery has been polished to a shining finish by a Northern Fire artisan in our workshop in Wales, where we also craft our moulds and hand cast each piece. Our pewter is sourced from Cornwall and has been chosen for its flexibility and shine.
This pendant comes with an adjustable cotton cord.
About The Artist
