rune on melted boulder pendant – man
This Rune is called Mannaz . It is the origin for the letter ‘M’.
Mannaz means ‘Man’. This rune symbolizes ‘humanity’ – the self and humankind.
Mannaz stands for cooperation. Together we are strong. There is no shame in accepting advice and help. Another person can stand by us and broaden our horizons. It makes perfect sense to approach the steps as a team, and not struggle through everywhere alone.
The Runes I make are based on The Elder Futhark. This is the writing system used by Germanic peoples in the 2nd to 10th Centuries and is considered to be the basis for our current alphabet.
I make a melted puddle of Argentium Silver resembling a wax seal. I solder the Rune to this base, and then dap the entire piece for a gentle dome. Then the bail is added and lots of polishing.
The entire pendant is then antiqued. The antique finish is permanent and it never needs polishing.
LAND * I am * SOURCE ENERGY OF ROCK – Steadfast – Confident – Eternal – Nurturing
Argentium Silver is a high quality silver with a silver content of 940. It has the unique feature of having a small amount of Germanium added. Argentium Silver is whiter, harder and slower to tarnish. And it is always nickel-free.
This pendant comes with an 18″ Sterling Silver bead chain – with an antique finish.
