The Arcanalia Pendant is derived from the Latin arcana meaning secret, mystery, or elixir. At the center of the pendant is a magical bronze pentagram, jet crystal beads, amethyst cabochon and copper pentagram on a 21 inch split trace chain with Swarovski crystals. This gothic pewter pendant is on an antique finish belcher chain. This Gothic pendant is cast and hand-made in fine English pewter, with additional high quality crystals and other components, hand-plated or other two-tone finish and all come complete upon their nickel-free chain or other necklace of appropriate length. An advantage of this pewter Arcanalia pendant is that it does not need regular polishing to maintain its gorgeous appearance. Pewter jewelry does not tarnish like silver jewelry. To keep your gothic Arcanalia pendant bright and shiny, an occasional cleaning with a quality proprietary metal polish will keep it looking brilliant. This pewter gothic pendant is made in Sheffield, England and crafted by master craftsman, who are members of The Worshipful Company of Pewterers. This group was granted a charter in 1474 by King Edward IV for the legal manufacture of pewter pendants throughout England. Many of the ancient pewter-smithing skills are still utilized today. They are the only manufacturer of high quality pendants in their gothic collection of fine pewter jewelry.
