Pagan Cresent Moon

Beautiful cresent moon in Pewter  -  MADE IN CORNWALL, ENGLAND

The sun and the moon riding on chariots through the sky is evidently a very old concept among the Pagan Norse and other Germanic peoples and can be found on rock carvings and other Scandinavian artifacts from the Bronze Age. Wiccan's have also adopted this lovely ancient symbol as a favourite, watching the moon cycle as they do!

Below the makers tell us a little about the material and process. 

Pewter is a malleable metal made of tin, copper and antimony. It melts at around 260 degrees Celsius and can be cast into vulcanised rubber moulds which only deteriorate slowly over many casts.

We cast our jewellery and gifts using this method and then painstakingly go through a fettling process to remove any surplus material and casting lines.
Each piece is polished and any findings or gemstones are fitted before packing. The whole operation is very labour intensive requiring skills that take many years to perfect. Due to the process it is highly unlikely that two pieces will be exactly the same even though to the untrained eye they may appear so.

Our staff take great pride in their work and are open to suggestions that may improve quality even further.  Lifetime guarantee. If there is a fault in the workmanship, we will repair or replace it free of charge. Simple.
