Handmade Westminster Gothic Bat Gargoyle Necklace, Solid Silver

Handcrafted Iconic Bat Gargoyle Pendant: Westminster Abbey’s Medieval Guardians 

🔥 Studio Original: Meticulously hand-carved bat gargoyle in wax, then cast in solid precious metal right here in our Silverfire Sussex workshop. 

Part of our signature Gothic collection, this heavy solid silver pendant is inspired by the iconic stone animal chimeras guarding Westminster Abbey. This detailed mythical creature, which we call the "Bat Gargoyle", is located high-up on the North Front,  beautifully translated here into a wearable work of silver art, and 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). 

The pendant is paired with a dark oxidised chain approximately 22 inches long, with alternative lengths available upon request.

Hand Made To Order: 

Each pendant is crafted by hand using the traditional wax casting technique, resulting in slight variations that make every gargoyle bat necklace truly unique and one of a kind. 

Because this gargoyle bat 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. This is an estimation of completion times, actual time-frames may vary.
