The Auryn is a variation of the Worm Ouroborous - a snake eating its own tail, which represents the cyclical nature of the universe and is also a Gnostic symbol for earthly ensnarement. Here, we have two snakes eating each other's tail - which adds a yin yang element to the cycle. This design was made famous by the fantasy movie "The Never Ending Story" where it protected and guided the bearer and was also a seal showing the bearer to be an emissary of the Empress of Fantasia. This design is sterling silver with one of the snakes oxidized. Every little scale is hand carved - so it's definitely a labor intensive piece! |
