Talisman of Radiant Aura

Legend has it that the Talisman of Radiant Aura was created by an ancient order of celestial beings who wished to bestow their light upon the mortal world. It is said that the talisman can only be wielded by those with pure intentions and a noble heart, as its powers are bound to the righteousness of its bearer. - 'An Omnibus of Antiquity', Alfreus Hornsworth, human archaeomancer. 
 
Each pendant is painstakingly designed, transcribed to metal and then saw-pierced by hand with a blade sometimes no thicker than a few strands of human hair. From there, it is filed into shape and carefully sanded. As the brass sheet each piece is cut from is only 1mm thick, each step must proceed with a gentle touch to ensure that the piece isn't damaged while being created. From there, extra details like metal beads or cabochon fittings are created and micro-welded onto the piece. Finally, the entire item gets a polish or a patina (or sometimes both!) before being set on a necklace and given a name. This process can take anywhere from a few hours, to upwards of a day and a half, depending on the complexity of the design.
 
The pendant itself is a little over 3.5cm in diameter. The cord necklace is 21cm from clasp to pendant.
 
All items on this store are hand made, and due to the nature of this, there may be minor deviations from the item pictured. While all care is taken with my work, minor changes like pattern placement are inevitable, especially between ring sizes. Small changes can also be present between items made in batches, often due to the nature of the materials used.
