Product Details
Find your way through. Self-confrontation & resolve, interpreted through a sculptural Greek mythology keychain charm.
Made to order & dispatch
Estimated dispatch: 20–25 business days after payment. Each pendant is made individually, with back engraving if you choose it. This production window applies to both material editions, including unengraved pieces. Shipping transit time is additional.
The story of Minotaur
The bull-headed Minotaur and the labyrinth bring a different energy to MYTHOS. This is a creature, not an Olympian god. Our interpretation uses its powerful image to suggest confronting what is difficult within a maze, without turning the original myth into a simple moral lesson.
A surface with character
A broad horned outline and geometric labyrinth lines contrast with the portrait and architectural pendants. Large irregular wear patches preserve the weight of the form.
Designed by IGNIS ARGENTUM STUDIO, under the creative direction of Jacob. The intended finish combines darkened recesses, broken planes and selective hand finishing. The images show the approved design direction; final production details will be confirmed on samples.
Choose your material
| Edition | Construction | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| 925 Sterling Silver | Sterling silver throughout the pendant body: 92.5% silver alloy. Our recommended edition. | $259 |

Both editions include one charm, a short personal back engraving and an IGNIS ARGENTUM gift box. The connecting ring, keys, chain, bag and other styling accessories are sold separately or shown for context.
A private message on the back
Keep the front devoted to the design and the back personal. Choose initials, a date or a short phrase. Suggestions for Minotaur: FIND THE WAY or FACE IT. Engraving is optional; leave the field empty for an unengraved back. The inscription is arranged to suit the available rear panel.

Explore the optional quick-release key ring. The ring is a separate product with its own material options and price.
A gift with a reason
For a wearer drawn to bold creature imagery and the idea of navigating complexity. The brand gift box is included in either material edition. A date or a few words on the back can make the choice specific to the person receiving it.
Care
Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after use. Keep away from chemicals, abrasive cleaners and prolonged moisture. Repeated key contact can mark either finish; plating can wear through over time. Avoid aggressive polishing in the darkened recesses or on the plated edition. Store the charm dry and separately when it is not in use.
