The angel pendant in silver was created with one arm extended in a gesture of compassion and love. If you order a custom version George will make changes to further customize your angel like changing the positions of the arms or even adding things like a harp or trumpet. These changes will also increase the price of the angel depending upon how much time is required to make the changes.
Each of the angel pendants in silver is re-detailed by hand and takes considerable time to complete. The angel is approximately 1, 1/4 X 2” in size. He is hanging from a trinity knot.
When Christian monks first came to Ireland to make converts, they were amazed to find stone crosses prominently placed across the island. They also found symbols like the trinity knot that were part of traditional Irish art that they could use to teach the faith. The conversion of the Irish to Christianity may have been the only one that was not violent. The trinity knot seemed perfect for this piece but we can also make other hangers for the angel as a custom order.
