Description
This design is inspired by this photo of a real snake [link] by the wonderfulIt can be seen as my humble tribute to Slytherin
The model was hand-carved in wax then cast in sterling silver and patinated to enhance the texture.
The pendant is 3.8 (1.5 inches) cm wide and 2.5 cm (1 inch) high.
The back of the model is hollow, so it is light relative to its size.
This item is currently availiable in my Etsy shop: [link]

Yes, wax was hand-carved. It's a second attempt - the first ended up too thin.
