Solid 22ct gold lion pendant and platinum chain. Handmade to order. © Adrian Ashley

A more interesting alternative to a diamond pendant - made under a microscope.

This piece will be hand made for you. Please allow up to 40 days manufacturing time.

These tiny, detailed animal sculptures are made from solid 22ct gold - the same type of gold that Gold Sovereign, Gold Krugerrand, and American Gold Eagle coins are minted from.

The pendants are cast from a single piece of gold and finished, under a microscope, in my Sussex workshop.

The gold lion will measure 1.3cm from the bottom of the lion's chin to the top of the ring it hangs from. It will be hung from a sturdy, yet elegant, 45cm (18") platinum chain.
