This amulet features a beautiful real electroformed Christmas beetle, entombed within metal.

The beetle in this amulet is plated in copper & nickel and has been embellished with a stainless steel ‘Helm’ chainmaille weave.

The Christmas beetle is a Scarab species native to Australia. In ancient Egypt, it was believed that a giant Scarab was the force that moved the sun across the sky, and as revered creatures, Scarabs were often featured in Egyptian amulets. The tradition of wearing adornments featuring insects was thought to have originated in Egypt, a tradition that was later revived in Europe during the Victorian era.

The electroformed Scarab in this amulet is suspended mid flight at the centre of a mandala adorned with Labradorite crystals with a blue flash and a crescent moon.

The Sanctum collection features foraged earthly treasures adorned with chainmaille to form amuletic armour. Sacred animal and plant remains, bound within chainmaille weaves inspired by ancient battle garments, are crafted into protective talismans to invoke the warrior within.

Measurements:

  • Pendant: 6cm length x 6cm width at widest point

  • Chainmail Choker: This necklace is designed to be worn as a choker and is crafted to sit close to the skin. Chokers are designed to be custom-fitted, ensuring the necklace drapes beautifully and aligns naturally with the wearer’s form. Because no two necks are the same, your chosen amulet will be custom fit perfectly for you, and you will be personally contacted via email after purchase to discuss your preferred measurements. When complete, your piece will be finished with approximately 5 cm of adjustability, allowing the choker to be worn slightly looser or more fitted as desired.
