Handcrafted Sterling Silver Grotesque Pendant

Part of our signature Gothic collection, this heavy solid silver 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.

🔥 Studio Original:

Meticulously sculpted in wax right here in our Sussex workshop before being cast in solid 925 sterling silver. This pendant showcases authentic dark academia craftsmanship. It is solid and weighty throughout, rather than hollowed out. For a truly personal touch, the reverse can be engraved with a name, initials, or a significant date (up to 25 characters).

Available as a standalone pendant or paired with our heavy 3.5mm dark oxidised silver chain (22 or 24-inch lengths).

Dark Academia Luxury | Living Gothic History

Crafted entirely by hand in our Sussex workshop using traditional lost-wax casting, this statement piece is a magnificent keepsake for collectors of unusual silver jewellery, history enthusiasts, and lovers of alternative luxury.

The Inspiration: The striking 19th-century Gothic Revival grotesques adorning the exterior North Porch of Westminster Abbey.
Process: 100% hand-sculpted in wax and lost-wax cast
Production Time: Made to order, please allow approx 20 working days for crafting before shipping.
Dragon Detailing: Intricate patterning and fierce dragon scales capturing the texture of the original weather-worn stone.

True Artisan Heritage: Proudly designed and made in the UK, finished with an independent hallmark from the UK Assay Office to guarantee silver purity.

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.

🛡️ Real British Craftsmanship vs. Cheap Imports

Many online shops market cheap, hollow jewelry mass-manufactured overseas as "handmade" simply by bulk-hallmarking the imports in the UK. SilverfireUK is different. Here is our guarantee:

Solid, Never Hollow: Our originals are cast as solid, heavyweight sterling silver. They feel substantial and will not dent or warp like factory imports.
100% Made in Sussex: Every original piece is crafted right here in our private UK workshop. We never import ready-made factory castings.
Made to Order for You: We do not pull stock from a generic warehouse. A silverfire original is individually hand-forged and can be deeply custom-engraved.
True Artisan Provenance: Your full British hallmark along with being made to order, backs up a piece that was genuinely designed, cast, and hand-finished in England.

⏱️ Important Info & Crafting Times

We are a tiny family business, so we aren't in a position to manufacture mass batches of these items, and as such, they are not held as inventory in stock.

Handcrafted For You: Every single piece is specifically handcrafted for you from scratch upon receipt of your order.
Cancellations: Because materials are allocated immediately, we cannot accept the cancellation of your order once workshop creation has begun.
