St Christopher pendant medal
Handmade in the Otways
Description
The piece was cast in Melbourne using the lost wax method and hand finished in my Otway forest studio.
This medal is large, has a fabulous hefty weight to it and has a blank cartouche shield on the back that could be engraved by a professional engraver. Along with the blank cartouche shield, the medal has German text GUTE FAHRT, translating to good ride/good trip. St Christopher is the patron saint of travellers and is said to protect folks on their travels.
Materials: bright or oxidised recycled sterling silver or 9ct yellow gold. Sterling silver + 9ct gold pieces are made to order and ship in approx 3 weeks.
Measurement: 3cm in diameter, excluding the jump ring.
This listing is for the pendant medal ONLY. If you order this piece you will not receive a chain unless you add one to your cart. Pictured on a 60cm long handmade Trombone link necklace chain.
Hand finished in Betsy Blonde's Otway forest based studio on Gadubanud Country.
