The Celtic pendant shows the motif of the so-called green man, which was particularly typical of the sacred art of the High and Late Gothic periods and in which pagan symbolism had survived in a Christian context.
The depiction of the "Green Man" combines two Celtic motifs: the head cult, which regarded the head as the bearer of all power, and mistletoe, which, according to Pliny the Elder, was cut from oaks and other trees by Celtic druids with a golden sicklewhen the moon was in a particular position in order to heal illnesses and strengthen and stimulate the general forces of life.
The medieval pendant is a real eye-catcher and a great accessory for a historical appearance, not only because of the impressive motif, but also due to its size and delicate design.
Dimensions: 4.2 x 4.2 cm
A 1 m long black leather strap is included with the pendant.
