Large Medieval Lion Head Pendant,Cast From an Original Thames Find
Born from the silt and shifting currents of the River Thames, this pendant is cast from an original medieval lion-head buckle discovered along its banks.
Once part of the adornment of someone who walked these lands centuries ago, the lion now lives on in solid, weighty form—renewed, but still carrying the quiet power of its past.
Lions have long symbolised courage, sovereignty, and guardianship. In medieval times they were worn as protective emblems, believed to watch over the wearer and lend them inner strength. This particular design, softened by centuries of water and time, feels both noble and ancient, as though it holds a whisper of forgotten stories.
Cast in beautifully detailed recycled sterling silver, the pendant retains every mark of the original artefact, the proud mane, the fierce but knowing expression, the sense of presence that only history can give. It’s a piece for those who feel connected to the old world, who sense meaning in relics, who wear symbols not just for beauty but for what they awaken within.
Strong, timeless, and deeply evocative, this lion stands as a guardian of the heart,reminding you of your own quiet bravery, your heritage, and the unseen forces that guide your path.
