Handcrafted from a vintage wax seal stamp from England, this talisman features a caduceus which is a staff entwined by two serpents, sometimes surmounted by wings. In Roman iconography, it was often depicted being carried in the left hand of Mercury, the messenger of the gods.
In North America, the caduceus is used as a symbol of medicine or the medical profession.
This fine silver talisman is just over a 3/4” round and and hangs from an 24" stainless steel baby ball chain that closes with a ball chain connector clasp. Other types of chains are sold separately.
