Doll Hand Reliquary

Reliquaries, historically ornate containers for sacred relics, have been used for centuries to house the bones, clothing, or personal effects of saints and spiritual figures, serving as tangible connections to the divine. When worn as jewelry, a reliquary holding a tooth or bone from an animal becomes a tribute to the natural world, honoring the spirit of the creature and the cycle of life and death—reminding us of our deep, ancient connection to the wild. This cathedral window-shaped reliquary holds an antique doll hand and skeleton key, surrounded by dried flowers and moss. This piece measures about 3 inches in length and comes on a 24-inch stainless steel chain. If you would prefer a different length of chain or leather cord, please include a note at checkout.
