Description I'm really excited about this! I'm venturing out and starting a new line of fantasy-inspired pieces, and this is the first piece I've come up with.

Inspiration:

In Norse mythology, a valkyrie (from Old Norse valkyrja "chooser of the slain") is one of a host of female figures who decide who will die in battle. The valkyries bring their chosen to the afterlife hall of the slain, Valhalla, ... Valkyries also appear as lovers of heroes and other mortals, where they are sometimes described as the daughters of royalty, sometimes accompanied by ravens, and sometimes connected to swans.
-Wikipedia

This lovely pendant was inspired by the fearsome and beautiful Valkyrie of lore, and features two winged and armored women flanking a glittering Bermuda Blue Swarovski Crystal heart. A stunning pair of feathered wings fans out behind them, completing the elegant look provided by layers of intricate brass filigree.
