Victorian Lion's Paw Pendant
Here is a neat Lions Paw pendant I created from an antique pair of sugar tongs. The pendant features a beautiful lion's paw from the 1800s, a little Victorian work of art. A well-matched sterling silver bale was soldered to the top of the foot, making this piece wearable as a pendant. The foot is silver plated, and the bale is sterling. This is a handmade piece with some irregularities. However, it's a very cool little treasure made from authentic Victorian serving ware. This little lion's paw is ready to wear, collect, or gift.
