7 Gildry Jewelry Pieces Inspired by Greek Mythology's Titan Nymph Circe

Hello, I'm Kristin, the founder and artist behind Gildry. Inspired by the magic of fantasy and the charm of nature, I handcraft each piece to bring a touch of enchantment to your everyday life. Whether you're attending a Renaissance Faire, cosplaying or LARPing your favorite character, or simply want to add a bit of whimsy to your daily look, these top 7 pieces from my collection are perfect for any fantasy lover.

I was reading a book called Circe by Madeline Miller  about the Titan witch Circe, and this collection started coming to life.

1. Gildry Twilight Scales Drop Earrings

These stunning earrings feature alternating layers of gold and silver scale mail, capturing the essence of medieval elegance. Suspended from a silver dangle hook and a textured silver ring, they add a captivating visual effect to any outfit.

Inspired by the celestial essence of the Titans and the mystical transition from day to night, these earrings embody the cosmic power of twilight. Perfect for both everyday wear and special occasions, these earrings are a must-have for anyone who loves Renaissance style jewelry and costume jewelry.

2. Gildry Sunlit Wisdom Earrings

Golden circular studs adorned with dangling dalmatian jasper, lustrous pearls, and a sunburst charm capture the essence of sunlight and natural beauty. Dalmatian jasper's grounding properties combined with the elegance of pearls make these earrings a versatile and meaningful addition to any jewelry collection. Inspired by the enchanting stories of ancient sun deities and their wisdom, these earrings bring a touch of divine light to your look.

In Circe, the sun god Helios, Circe's father, symbolizes power, light, and divine wisdom. These earrings reflect the radiance and authority of sun deities like Helios, infusing your style with a celestial touch.

3. Gildry Golden Weave Pearl Pendant Earrings

Pair these exquisite earrings with the matching necklace or wear them on their own for a touch of elegance. The intricate weave design and the lustrous pearl drop create a timeless piece that exudes sophistication and charm. Inspired by the delicate artistry found in elven jewelry, these earrings are perfect for both casual and formal occasions, making them a must-have for any fantasy lover.

In Circe, the titular character receives a loom from the master craftsman Daedalus. This gift allows her to weave intricate tapestries, symbolizing her power, creativity, and connection to the divine. My weave pieces draw inspiration from this story, embodying the intricate and delicate nature of Circe's art. Each piece is designed to reflect the timeless beauty and craftsmanship that Daedalus's gift represents.

4. Gildry Silver Starlight Helm Chain Necklace

This handmade necklace features a classic helm chain design crafted entirely from silver-plated jump rings. At 14 inches in length, it sits elegantly around your neck, adding a touch of medieval elegance to any outfit. Inspired by the armor and chainmail worn by knights and adventurers, the all-silver helm chain offers a versatile and sophisticated accessory that complements any fantasy-inspired look.

Helm chain signifies strength, and who stronger than Circe, who builds a full life for herself after years of torment and teaches herself to harness her true power. This necklace embodies her resilience and transformation, making it a powerful addition to any collection.

5. Gildry Guardian Scale Pauldron

For those who want to make a bold statement, this single shoulder half pauldron is a showstopper. With silver chain accents and easy-to-use lobster clasps, this piece combines practicality with fantasy flair. Inspired by the protective armor worn by mythical guardians, like the formidable creatures and beings in Circe, this pauldron embodies strength and resilience. Perfect for Renaissance Faires, cosplay, or adding an edgy touch to your wardrobe.

In Circe, powerful guardians such as the fierce lions and wolves that protect Circe's island represent loyalty and protection. The Guardian Scale Pauldron is a tribute to these loyal protectors, offering both style and symbolism.

6. Gildry Golden Weave Pearl Pendant Necklace

This necklace features a crochet wire weave design with a pearl drop pendant, crafted with a 14k gold filled, lead-nickel free herringbone chain. It's a testament to intricate craftsmanship and timeless beauty. Pair it with the matching earrings for a complete, elegant look.

7. Gildry Enchanted Layers Necklace

Just as Circe weaves spells to harmonize her island with nature's creatures, this necklace intertwines delicate chains and shimmering charms to evoke a sense of magical harmony.

Each layer represents a facet of Circe's power: from the gentle whispers of forest nymphs to the luminous spells that illuminate her enchanted realm under the moonlight. Whether worn at a Renaissance Faire or as an everyday necklace the Enchanted Layers Necklace invites you to embrace the enchanting beauty and timeless elegance of myth and fantasy.

The mystical elements of Circe continue to influence these pieces, embodying the magic and wonder of the ancient Greek mythos. Each item in this collection is designed to bring a piece of that enchantment into your life.
