Mouse vertebrae and cross earrings
€36.00
One of a kind, available now.
Earrings built around real mouse vertebrae cast in resin, set on a dark oval with a cross. Restrained, deep and quietly northern in feel.
Symbology
The mouse vertebrae are the load-bearing beam of life, fragility and resilience in one form. The spine is inner support and dignity that holds even when all else is gone. The mouse is watchfulness and the hidden strength of small things. The black oval is night, the subconscious and the hidden world. The cross is the crossing point of life and death, protection and devotion, its vertical line a link between earth and sky, the material and the spiritual. The dark metal carries restraint, depth and northern mysticism, and the bone is the thread joining life and death.
Measurements
Pendant length about 6 cm.
Materials
Real mouse vertebrae sourced from owl pellets, a natural cycle in which no animal is harmed by human hands. Hand cleaned, dried and cast in UV resin. Metal alloy pendant and hooks. Hooks can be swapped on request for silver or gold stainless steel, or S925 silver for a small surcharge.
