The atlas, or C1 vertebra, is the first cervical vertebra at the top of the spine. It supports the skull and, together with the axis below it, helps the head move.
The Design
We hand-sculpted this piece with a lot of care, taking time to shape and refine the design.
Made by Us, From Sculpture to Finish
We sculpt the original by hand in our Swedish workshop. We make the mold, cast the pendant in lead-free pewter, and finish each one by hand. The surface is oxidized to bring out the details, then polished by hand.
