The Ancient Amulet Collection
A set of mystical crystal amulets, that appear like ancient artifacts from another time, long ago - or keystones to another place/realm. Using raw metal, each was hand built over weeks using traditional metal-forming and brazing techniques. The golden colour is jewellers-brass - a type of brass that has a higher zinc content giving them an almost 'old-gold' look. Twisted vines feature throughout, along with numerous magical symbols and high-grade Gemstones.
Please note measurements, these are statement pieces and quite large. If you would like me to adjust the chain length before leaving just pop me a note. Whilst most designs are fully adjustable, if you know you want to wear them high up, you might not want 10" of chain spare at the back.

All components are raw brass and contain no nickle, nor any kind of plating. Whilst made to a high standard, they are still artwork and should be removed before strenuous activity or bathing to prevent damage to the Gems.
While brass can be easily polished to retain or restore its golden hue, these jewels lend themselves to the more ancient bronze-look that happens naturally as brass tarnishes from exposure to air. They will look more and more ancient over time. Should you wish, however, to prevent the aging-process, simply store in a sealed, dark pouch and polish before/after use.
