Ostrogoth Dragon Ear Wrap

This polished pewter dragon wraps around the right ear, with its pointed tail curled at the top and its head at the lobe, secured by a surgical steel ear-post. This ear wrap from Alchemy Gothic takes its inspiration from the Ostrogoths, a Germanic tribe who rose in power in the area north of the Black Sea and captured the "eternal City" of Rome in 546. The Baltic region was ripe with myths of creatures, and this spiny scaled dragon with its scuted back could no doubt have been lurking in the hinterland of the Black Sea.  Approximately 2-13/16" tall, 1-"3/4 wide Fastening: It is critical that the Ear Wrap be formed to fit the ear properly, as no two ears are alike in size or shape. Alchemy's Ear Wraps are made of English Pewter which is perfect for gently bending into shape. Please note that this item may not be suitable for smaller than average-sized ears, and repeated over-bending over time may cause the metal to fracture. Caring for Pewter
