Part of our signature artisan Gothic collection, this heavy solid silver gargoyle dragon pendant is inspired by the iconic stone animal chimeras guarding Westminster Abbey. This intricately detailed mythical creature, which we call the "Westminster Dragon", is located near the magnificent North Transept Porch, beautifully translated here into a wearable work of art.
🔥 Handcrafted Sterling Silver Grotesque Pendant & Studio Original:
This piece is meticulously sculpted by hand in wax right here in our Sussex workshop before being cast in solid 925 sterling silver using traditional lost-wax casting. The Grotesque pendant showcases authentic dark academia craftsmanship. It is solid and weighty throughout, rather than hollowed out.
Custom Engraved
For a truly personal touch, the reverse will be engraved with initials, or a significant date (up to 8 characters). Enter in the inscription box.
Available as a standalone pendant or paired with our heavy 3.5mm dark oxidised silver chain (22 or 24-inch lengths).

Hand Made To Order
With each pendant being handmade using a traditional wax casting method, each piece may vary slightly, thus making every gargoyle bat necklace one of a kind and unique.
Because this gargoyle dragon necklace is made to order we advise to allow 'approx' 20 working days for dispatch as this gives us time to make the necklace, have it hallmarked at the Assay Office, and we'll then deliver to you; UK shipping we use Royal Mail Special Delivery with insurance and tracking, which usually arrives the next working day after we post. Actual time-frames may vary.
