Nile Catfish Pendant
Egyptian, ca. 1985-1773 BCE (Middle Kingdom, 12th dynasty)
This fish pendant represents a Synodontis Batensoda, more commonly known as the Nile catfish, a species of fish named for its black belly. Often worn at the end of a plait of hair, amulets like this one were used by children and young women to protect against drowning. This fine amulet is made of gold with stone inlays, including a red stone for the right eye and a green stone for the left. Amulets in the form of the Synodontis Batensoda were particularly popular during the Middle Kingdom, when the fish might have been identified with an astronomical constellation.

I like Skywings a lot actually. I think they were underutilized in the story. And then there is Flame. Poor, lovable Flame. One day I would like to write a more in-depth think piece on him, his character, and his role in the story. But not today, so here are some Skywings:

more Jade Winglet designs featuring Winter + Qibli!
Winter is very borzoi shaped to me, so I tried to do that with his face. also, although i think royal Icewings find icicle shaped horns more attractive than antlers, being away from the Ice Kingdom meant Winter didn't have to keep them shaved down. they're sharper though, still like icicles.
Qibli just feels like he needs darker scales and fun hair, so i did that + blocky shapes. he's also short, because i say so. the banded scales also feels right, so...
Moonwatcher + Kinkajou designs
~size comparison under cut~
Tumblr media
Moonwatcher and Qibli are basically the same height, but Moon is much bulkier
*friendly reminder that i do take requests! send me your ocs and i'll draw them if i have time :)*

Gold armband with Herakles knot
Hellenistic period
3rd–2nd century BCE
Gold inlaid with garnets, emeralds, and enamel
3 1/2in. (8.9cm)
The Herakles knot on this sumptuous armband is enriched with floral decoration and inlaid with garnets, emeralds, and enamel. According to the Roman writer Pliny, the decorative device of the Herakles knot could cure wounds, and its popularity in Hellenistic jewelry suggests that it was thought to have the power to avert evil.
