• INDIVIDUALLY HANDMADE:
All our sterling silver pendants, including this dragon pendant / dragon necklace, are created from original hand carved designs by Paxton. Each piece is individually crafted, starting out as a wax injection which is refined and hand cast into sterling silver by Paxon and then silver-smithed and finished by his talented wife Marne. Every piece comes hand personally signed by the artist. We are a completely artisan handmade husband and wife business. Every piece from start to finish is done by our hands in our personal studio.

• ABOUT the DRAGON:
"A dragon is a magical legendary creature that appears in the folklore of multiple cultures worldwide. Beliefs about dragons vary considerably through regions, but dragons in Western cultures since the High Middle Ages have often been depicted as winged, horned, and capable of breathing fire. Dragons in eastern cultures are usually depicted as wingless, four-legged, serpentine creatures with above-average intelligence. Commonalities between dragons' traits are often a hybridization of feline, reptilian, mammalian, and avian features. Some scholars believe large extinct or migrating crocodiles bear the closest resemblance, especially when encountered in forested or swampy areas, and are most likely the template of modern Asian dragon imagery."
