Maloik: Sign Of The Horns: Maschio Necklace

Dio threw it into the crowd in 1979 and the metal world never put it down.

The maloik, the sign of the horns, the universal salute of everyone who ever held a lighter aloft or stood too close to a speaker stack. Alchemy England's Maschio version of this icon doesn't do anything subtle, and it's not supposed to. It's a necklace that carries decades of heavy metal and punk subcultural weight, worn by everyone from front-row diehards to people who just know what they're about. The gothic detail work on the hand elevates it past novelty into something that actually looks like it belongs, because it does.

Lead-free pewter alloy pendant on chain. Alchemy England, imported.
