Artist's Comments

This is one of my metal pieces I made last year. I must say, I've improved since then. This particular piece is pretty rough.
The main part and the little symbols were sculpted from soft wax and then cast in silver through the lost-wax-casting process. That is red enamel (which is tricky to use in details, because it shrinks when it melts).
It's designed to have ribbon (or chain, or leather) attached through the two loops formed by the flame-like tendrils on the sides. Meant to rest against one’s throat with a subtle pressure. It's quite heavy.
The theme of this piece was "personal symbols". It's a little dated now, though...
I will upload newer metal pieces when I am able.

Wow, this is beautiful. I hope I can try something like this some day.
brilliant :D it looks like it came from an ancient culture of some sort
Yeh...it does look rather primitive, doesn't it? Heheh. Good for the theme, I suppose.
Native American-ish I think
Hmm.. Yes, I see what you mean about it being a rough piece, now that I see it in full view. However, there is something about the crudeness of it which seems fitting.
I don't think it's primitive, it looks as if there was a legend about it . the colours and the materials are great!
8-pointed arrows of Chaos? Michael Moorcock/Elric fan I take it? BADASS.
Moorcock and Elric....can't say I know of them. What do they do?
No, the Chaos Star is an ancient symbol that I have put on my warbanner for some time.
Cheers for the comment.
