2016 Severus Snape Fest: Art: Always Faithful

[snape-fest-mod.livejournal.com]

Title: Always Faithful
Artist: kerravonsen
Pairing(s)/character(s): just Severus Snape
Rating: G
Medium: jewellery: enamelled copper wire, charms, Labradorite, aluminium rings
Prompt: Something which symbolises Snape
Summary: Surrounded by darkness, Severus clung to his duty like ivy to a wall.
Warnings: NONE
Disclaimer: The character of Severus Snape belongs to JKR. The artistic interpretation is mine.
A/N: This is an item I've wanted to make for a while, ever since I found out the symbolism of the semi-precious stone Labradorite. Labradorite is a seemingly unimpressive grey rock until you turn it just the right way and you get a flash of colour; pale green, blue, gold; this is called Labradorescence. The symbolism of the stone is thus: hidden knowledge, hidden beauty, subtlety, intuition, and protection. This, I thought, was perfect for Severus Snape. So, the stone in the pendant is Labradorite. The other major symbol in the necklace is Ivy. Ivy stands for endurance, faithfulness, perseverance. Which is also perfect for Snape.

Snape, the spy with a hundred shades of grey, touched by darkness and light; hidden knowledge and subtlety, hidden beauty -- because his faithfulness to Lily's memory and his promise and his duty, they are all beautiful, but so very deeply hidden.

The first picture is the necklace on its chain.
The second picture shows the pendant flashing with Labradorescence.
