Vintage Eastern Orthodox Double-Sided Saint George Amulet Pendant Necklace
Masterfully designed in the Byzantine tradition, this heavy-set 2\" square medallion features a high-relief depiction of Saint George the Victorious slaying the dragon—a timeless Christian symbol representing the ultimate triumph of faith and good over evil. And St Nicholas the Wonder Worker.
- Iconic Relief Artwork: The front face prominently features Saint George on horseback wielding his spear against the dragon, accompanied by Greek script lettering (Ο Άγιος Γεώργιος).
- Double-Sided Design: Crafted in the traditional style of a travel icon or miniature reliquary box, featuring holy iconography detailed on both sides.
- Dangling Charms (Chamilia): Decorated along the bottom edge with three distinct dangling metal charms, including stylized circular discs and a central drop-amulet piece.
- Matching Chain: Accompanied by a durable approx. 26\", heavily textured matching rope/link chain, attached via side loops to ensure the pendant sits securely and balanced when worn.
- Material & Finish: Solid metallic composition (brass/bronze tone) showcasing a gorgeous, deep antiqued patina that enhances every highlight and shadow of the relief work.
- Excellent vintage condition with a rich, authentic age-matured patina. The structural elements, dangling charms, and chain links remain strong and secure. Please refer carefully to the photos to evaluate the fine surface details and metal color.
This is a statement piece for collectors of historic and religious jewelry.
