An ornate cast of a real iron skeleton key in oxidized sterling silver.
Janus is the ancient Roman god of beginnings, transitions, gates, time, and endings. He is best known for being depicted with two faces. One looking to the past and the other to the future. Which allowed him to see in two directions at once.
Symbolically he is represented by the key. This large victorian key is a talisman of unlocking one's future while taking the lessons of the past with us.
The pendant is 3.20" in length, and cast in solid sterling silver.
Comes with choice of length of a woven style chain, cotton dust bag & curated velvet or vintage jewellery box.
