❖Emerald Caduceus - Staff of Thoth❖
Materials: handcut sterling silver, serpentine.
Size: 7cm length
Chain: 45cm sterling silver
This pendant is part of the Green Heart Collection, created entirely by hand in my studio in Emerald VIC.
This pendant is one of a series of unique works collaborating with ifnotforgravity. It is named the "Staff of Thoth" due to the Egyptian deity Thoth being an ancient Egyptian version of the same archetype as the Greek Hermes. The design variation is a combination of the Greek Caduceus staff and the Egyptian Uraeus sacred serpent. In this variation the two serpents are coiled in helix around a winged staff which is holding a jeweled emblem representing the cardinal points and the Sun.
I handcut these layers of sterling silver so that when put together, they form the Caduceus design. I cut them by hand using a tiny sawblade, and riveted them together using sterling silver rivets. I set a deep green emerald in the central orb.
Your purchase will come packaged in a gift box complete with wax seal.
