Lost Dragon - Pendant, Pewter

The Lost Dragon is an old Celtic motif symbolizing the realm of subconsciousness where creative power of man forms new purposes for his life. He is the last of his kind left over after a long hard battle with the dragon-slayers. Now the Lost Dragon has nothing but the strength of his dreams to focus his intuition and his mind on new goals using this energy.
 
This pendant is made of pewter, a shiny, soft metal which is very malleable and has a good tarnish resistance. Artists and craftsmen used pewter quite early (dinnerware, sculptures, household articles, pewter figures, jewelry) and hence pewter jewelry has a long tradition. The word pewter is probably a variation of the word spelter, a colloquial name for the same metal.
