Leo Necklace in Sterling Silver — Zodiac Relic Pendant with Constellation Reverse

Leo necklace in 925 sterling silver, hand-carved with the zodiac symbol on one side and the Leo constellation on the reverse.

Substantial, cratered and eroded, this zodiac relic pendant has the feel of a worn symbolic marker — dense in the hand, grounded in weight, and made for those who connect with Leo as more than just a birth sign.

This is part of a collection of 12 hand-carved zodiac relic pendants.

Where it’s made

Every piece is designed, hand-carved, cast and finished by me in small batches in my North Wales workshop, using the lost-wax process — a method practised for thousands of years. No CAD or 3D printing is used; each design begins as a wax form shaped entirely by hand.

Meaning & origins

Leo is the fifth sign of the zodiac, tied to those born roughly between 23 July and 22 August. In traditional astrology it is the fixed fire sign, associated with steadiness, force and presence.

Its symbol is the lion, an old image of courage, visibility and self-command. Leo is ruled by the Sun, giving the sign its connection to vitality, the heart, creative will and the need to stand fully in one’s own form.

This pendant takes that older side of Leo: not a decorative charm, but a compact marker of identity. The symbol is carved into one side; the constellation sits on the reverse — the sign worn close, and the sky behind it.
