The manticore pin!
925 sterling silver,
40 x 44 x 2mm,

••• Available to buy on my website now •••

I have wanted to work in silver for a long time and I’ve worked out a method which mirrors the traditional ways of making medieval pilgrim badges. This is a limited run but I hope to make more designs in the future!

I will be selling these at the @neoancients makers market this weekend in Stroud, I will also be selling them online from my website - 4th May, 6pm.

The Manticore is a legendary beast of Persian origin, a hybrid creature with the body of a lion, a human head and a venomous or spiked tail. It’s name derives from old Persian, ‘mardkhora’, meaning “man-eater”, and is known for eating humans whole. The human head represents intellect, thinking and awareness, while the animal body embodies instinct, action, and gut feeling, together forming a top predator to protect you as you move through new or uncertain territory.

Pilgrim badges were small metal tokens, often made from pewter and mass-produced in moulds to be sold at holy sites to travellers and pilgrims - early souvenirs. They were pinned or sewed onto clothing as proof of their journey and as symbols of devotion and protection. They often depicted highly illustrative scenes of local tales, saints, animals, and sometimes body parts linked to healing.

Throughout Celtic beliefs, the oak is thought to be one of the most sacred trees. Druids believed that oaks bridge the gap between the earth and sky and rituals would take place under their branches.

The word ‘Druid’ may have derived from an ancient Celtic word meaning ‘oak-knower’. ‘Dru’ meaning oak and ‘wid’ meaning to know or see.

Because of their high water content and the tallest thing in the landscape, oaks are often struck by lightning and are closely associated with thunder gods throughout Celtic, Norse and Greek mythology.

The oak came to symbolise strength and protection.
