Description

The Symbolism of the Fox Mask
This specific design is a traditional English horse brass. Historically used in the 19th and early 20th centuries to decorate the leather harnesses of heavy draft horses (like Shires and Clydesdales), these medallions served as both decoration and protective amulets. 
  • The Fox Hunting Tradition: In English country culture, the fox mask is a prominent symbol tied directly to traditional equestrian sports and fox hunting. 
  • Symbolic Meaning: To the draymen and farmers who decorated their horses, the fox symbolised cleverness, agility, and cunning survival instincts.
  • Superstition & Protection: Horse brasses were originally used as talismans to ward off the “evil eye” and protect hard-working horses from bad luck or injury on the road.

 

The Beads:

Instead of uniform smaller beads, this version has been styled into a modern artisan statement necklace using large, chunky, multi-colored resin beads
