An uncommon jewel that bears two lions at the wrist.
This is a truly special item. One wonders who made it, and for what purpose.
It is an incredible piece, featuring two lion heads finished with a grayish curb chain.
The realistic craftsmanship, down to the fine detail of the lions' fur, makes it feel more like a sculpture than mere jewelry.
It bears a silver 800 stamp in the hollow on the back, and given how pristine it is without a single scratch, it is hard to believe, but it seems to date back quite a long time—perhaps close to 100 years.
Having these kings of the jungle protruding like taxidermy on your wrist is truly unique.
In Europe, the lion is not just an animal; it has been an important guardian beast in mythology and a symbol of authority,
and has been cherished in jewelry and ornaments since the 19th century.
At first, I was surprised that such a design was made in silver, but when I think about it, it is a motif often found on old door knockers as well.
It is an exclusive item, crafted by someone perhaps with the intention of it serving as a wearable amulet.
I can sincerely recommend this; it is the kind of piece you will never see again, and it is almost a shame to let it go.
