Made in England. Raven necklace, solid silver with natural emerald eyes, double sided pendant on an oxidised silver chain.

Ravens represent the largest species of crows and are seen throughout the world in their various guises.  Ravens can be very long-lived, they usually travel in mated pairs and although relationships between ravens are often quarrelsome, they demonstrate considerable devotion to their families.

The ravens’ habitat of rugged cliffs and wild landscapes has seen them promoted as a powerful symbol of mythology and folklore. There are several references to ravens in the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. Ravens feature heavily in Norse, Celtic and Indigenous American mythology. They are an aspect of Mahakala in Bhutanese mythology and are also mentioned in the Quran.
In my own home town of London a legend developed that the Tower of London will fall down if the ravens kept there ever fly away.

This raven pendant is made from solid sterling silver. The silver has been oxidised to represent the raven’s black feathers and natural green emeralds have been set in its eyes. The raven pendant has a wingspan of one and a half inches, that’s a little under 4cm, and is supplied in its own gift box.
