Celtic Minotaur Torc

[http://users.livejournal.com/_graywolf_/]

Hi everyone! Although this is one of my older works, it is by far the one I'm most proud of to-date. The minotaur Celtic neck-torc. A whopping piece of neck adornment, bejeweled with 5 gem-stones PER head. That's ten stones in total for the torc itself, and 6 for the pendant.

From the description;
The torc is made of a thick noble-steel braid, and the heads are silver, with 24k gold accenting on the 'collar' braid and the balls on top of the horns. Each head carries 2 Lapis Lazuli stones on the cheeks, 2 Amber stones for the eyes, and in between the horns we find a piece of Garnet. 5 stones per head making up the ten stones for the entire torc. The eye sockets are roughly drilled out on the inside, which therefor reflect light from almost every angle it's held in, making the Amber pieces SHINE. It looks amazing in person.

The pendant is a female version, but carries the same gold detailing and stonework. The only difference is that the end of this pendant carries a giant 9mm Onyx stone. The pendant hangs from a cord that runs through the mouth of the cow.
