Key Features / Specs Material: Pewter with blue enamel Process: Lost-wax casting with hand finishing Size: Approx. 2.5 cm (0.98 inches) Finish: Matte metallic surface with enamel detail Cord: Cotton cord included Dispatched: Canada Ships within: 1–2 business days This pendant follows the form of early solar cross designs found in historical ornament across Northern and Eastern Europe. The circular structure and intersecting lines create a balanced geometric shape often associated with seasonal and celestial symbolism. Cast in pewter and finished individually by hand, the piece has a softer grey tone than brass, contrasted by a blue enamel centre. The surface retains small traces of manual finishing rather than a perfectly uniform texture. The pendant is light in weight and easy to wear on either a cord or chain. Its compact size keeps the design simple and practical for everyday use. Small differences in texture, enamel depth, and finish are part of the handmade process. About the Design Solar cross forms appear in a wide range of early European decorative traditions. Similar motifs have been documented in Norse, Baltic, and Slavic material culture, often used in jewellery and small personal objects.
