Vintage Sterling Silver Celtic Boar 500.BC Double Sided Pendant 6.3g

This double sided low relief Celtic boar and 500.BC themed pendant is made in sterling silver with a small loop to the top of the piece. Boars have been a symbol of strength throughout the ages, in particular among the Celts, Europe and Western Asia. This particular example is closely based on similarly carved stone examples found throughout Scotland. The fierce image of the boar is very prevalent, yet the animals are largely peaceful and pose little threat to humans unless provoked.

Within Druidic lore, the female sow symbolises generosity and the nourishment of the earth. This British made pendant was laser tested as sterling silver and is stamped with 925, DMC and lion rampant hallmarks. Would make a great gift for a nature lover or look great worn on a silver chain or leather thong.
