Neverending Story Pendant


My obsession with the Neverending Story movies starts back in the 80s... This Auryn Pendant is the gold mix model that uses a hand crafted "married metal" technique which is even harder to do. No wonder it's so pretty!
Like most great movies, bits of reality is sowen in. The Auryn design is a variation of the legendary snake called the ouroborous. This image of a snake eating its own tail represents eternal return or the cyclical nature of the universe; it's also a Gnostic (esoteric Christian) symbol for "earthly ensnarement," but I don't wanna get in it that deep.
