Kalevala Kori “Sisilisko” Bronze Patina (Lizard) Cross Shaped Pendant

Kalevala Koru "Sisilisko" Bronze Patina (Lizard) Cross Shaped Pendant Design & Origin: It is a classic design from Kalevala Koru, a renowned Finnish jewelry company. The "Sisilisko" (lizard) motif is inspired by Viking-age archaeological finds from Finland. Material: These pieces are typically made of solid bronze, which develops a deep, warm patina over time. Symbolism: The three "lizard heads" (one at the top and two at the ends of the crossbar) traditionally symbolize strength and protection in Nordic mythology. Identification: Authentic pieces often carry stamps such as "KK" (for Kalevala Koru) and sometimes "Idman". While its cross-like shape can lead to it being mistaken for a crucifix or a small finial, its specific stylized ends and body texture are characteristic of this traditional Finnish lizard design. There appears to be a KK mark that has rubbed off upper mid center but it is difficult to tell. Measures 2 3/4 inches x 1 1/2 inches
