Viking Pendant


Greetings and long time unseen!

Recently I celebrated a birthday, and my grandfather sent me a clipping from a magazine with a picture of a Viking warrior. I admit only glancing at it, but when I picked it up a few days later, the warrior's necklace caught my eye.





I had been dabbling in bonework over the past couple weeks, so I decided to undertake this project on a whim. I did most of the hardest work in a couple sittings, aided greatly by House M.D. After the basic shape was sawn from the antler, I paused, as I hadn't a small enough drill bit for the hole.

Today, I bought said drill bit, drilled the hole, did the final decoration, then cut the pendant from the antler and finished up the end. And here it is:

Nice! How big (small?) is it? It looks like it's about an inch long.
Are you going to make the rest of the necklace, too?

Actually, it's a little less than one inch. Probably closer to 3/4".

As for the rest of the necklace, perhaps in time I shall make it, but it isn't in my plans.
