Medieval Hathor Pendant

Hand-wrought 24-karat Italian gold leaf adorns the artist's Medieval finish silver, drawing on the tradition of medieval altarpieces and the ancient practice of keum-boo. In the Egyptian pantheon, the goddess Hathor was the mother of the sun, and the medallion’s form echoes the shape of her iconic headdress. Luminous gold contrasts beautifully against hand-blackened sterling silver, creating a piece rich with symbolism, history, and warmth. The medallion hangs from an 18-inch black rubber cord, finished with a sterling silver bayonet clasp for a clean, modern edge.
