Fire Salamanders

These are stainless steel LASER-CUT blanks that I've done surface decoration to, (cold punching mostly). I had originally designed them as dress fasteners for a seamstress friend,notice the holes for sewing onto garments.There was a tongue on the head,(now removed) that would hook through the tail of the other one. I altered a few in the way you see here as pendants.The fire salamander is one traditional symbol for "the great work",or (Alchemy). Length-2"
