Artist's Comments

The Elvynne torc.

The terminal/head is made of fine silver and contains two citrine stones for eyes (2mm each). The character is a dragon wolf, and it has four horns; Two on top, and two that fold behind them. The other side of the torc is a plain ball.

The body braid is of polished noble steel that has been given a high gloss to resemble silver work. I used steel for the body braid because of it's strength and resistance to tarnishing, as well as to keep the costs down since these are full custom and one of a kind commissions.

A Torc is a piece of Celtic jewellery which is worn around the neck. There are also arm torcs and wrist torcs.


And my kindest regards to Jagarnot and Kitten-of-woe. I never thought one of my Celtic Torcs would become a DD! I am stunned, shocked, amazed and delighted! Thank you all so much for showing such love and interest in my work! You all are truly bringing my dream of revitalizing and reviving the Celtic arts to life!

Elvynne Torc by *Illahie. A torc of Celtic influence with one terminal of a dragon wolf in fine silver, which is 99.99% pure silver, and the other a plain ball. The body of the torc is made of noble steel, which is stainless steel. This one should be seen in fullview to take in all the details, including the dragonwolf's eyes which are citrines. And, do browse *Illahie's gallery to see her other very fine jewelry pieces. (Suggested by *Jagarnot and Featured by `Kitten-of-Woe)

That looks really great! I loke the horns, and the head in general :) I think it'd be lovely to wear something like that! :)

Beautiful! When you make this did you braid the silver into the shape and then add the caps on the end? It looks amazing.
