One of the main questions I get asked is about Elder Futhark Runes and how to do transcriptions 🙂

I have an awesome resource here on how to read and write in Runes, from the perspective and language of an American or native English speaker. It’s different for Europeans as their alphabets are essentially phonetically identical (for the most part). The American English alphabet is completely different and it takes a very creative approach to accurately phonetically transcribe.

Due to the time it takes me, and the demand, I simply am not able to offer Runic transcriptions anymore, which is why I have this resource available here for you to learn to do it yourself. I’d love to be able to continue offering this, but it is much better to teach one to fish, rather than offering the fish, am I right?

My husband Kevin, spends most of his time working as a research assistant of anthropology, with an emphasis on bear ceremonialism (bear cults) of the northern hemisphere. He has written a plethora of information made available here, and there are the things which inspire The Wicked Griffin the most <3

Walpurgisnacht has changed so much over the centuries.

What began as a night of caution, protection, and warding off spirits has become a celebration of spring, folklore, and community.

I love seeing how these old traditions still live on today, especially in the Harz Mountains with the costumes, parades, and eerie old magic still lingering in the air.

Have a beautiful Walpurgisnacht + Beltane. 🔥🌿✨

The first image is a screenshot from a YouTube video…please check my stories for the link!
I’m loving how much you all love my new Walpurgisnacht pendant ❤️
Five witches dance around a blazing bonfire beneath a citrine cabochon in this Walpurgisnacht pendant.

The back features a brass crescent moon, echoing the night sky of the witches’ gathering.

Walpurgisnacht, celebrated on the night of April 30, is the legendary “Night of the Witches” in German folklore, when witches were said to gather on mountaintops and dance around sacred fires to welcome the arrival of spring.
Happy washing day 🙃

A few rings I’ve worked on the last couple days…
Freya’s cats rule and dogs drool?
Or was that the other way around? 🙃
Garm barely shows up in the old Norse stories.
Still… he leaves a mark.

A chained hound at the edge of Hel.
Watching the boundary.

His howl is one of the signs the last battle is beginning.

Bavarian Folklore says that you might just cross paths with a Wolpertinger in the alpine forest.

The forest animal of all animals – a representation of all, or Urviech in German.The Wolpertinger is a rabbit with fangs, wings and antlers.

Come to my neck of the woods and you might just catch one! ❤️

He finally stepped out of the forest…

The Wolpertinger Pendant has arrived. 

Inspired by old Bavarian tales of the antlered hare who moves silently through shadow and moss, this piece carries a little wild magic wherever it goes. 

Strange, story-filled, and made for those who feel at home in myth and woodland twilight.

I thought I had closed the book on the Alice in Wonderland rings…

But you kept asking for more, so here they are.

Which one is your favorite??
Can this be over now, please?
In case you forgot 💜
5,445 days in, and I’m still doing the same thing.

Taking old stories and trying to give them weight.

Some days it works.
Some days it fights back.
Either way, this is the work. 🖤

Something I’ve been thinking about lately.

If there’s one thing I would’ve done differently early on, it’s this:

I would have invested in casting equipment much sooner.

When I started out in 2011, I spent years learning as many jewelry techniques as possible. 

And I don’t regret that, I loved it. 

It taught me patience, problem-solving, and respect for the process.

But casting was how I first learned jewelry back in a high school metals class in 1999/2000. 

If I’d trusted that foundation earlier and leaned into it, it would have saved me a lot of years of circling, experimenting, and hitting the same limits over and over.

The journey was wrong, just longer than it needed to be.

Every piece I make now carries all of that with it. 

The learning, the detours, the slow build.

Just something I wanted to share, artist to artist. 🖤
This year, we’re not buying things just to keep up.

If you need the reminder:

✔️ You don’t need what’s trending
✔️ You don’t need to explain your symbols
✔️ What you choose to wear can mean something

Which one of these are you carrying into 2026? 🖤
My husband is from Bavaria (southern Germany) and I originally made this Krampus pendant for him.

The Krampusnacht traditions belong to his culture, and it was so important to me to really bring this pendant alive and make it as accurate as possible.

When I added him to my shop, I couldn’t believe how many of you loved him as much as I do!

He’s super-small lost wax cast in my home studio (only 3 at a time).

Thank you @shes_sinister for the prompt!
While I welcome the seasonal darkness…it sure is going to make my morning quick videos before I pack up orders very difficult.

So, cheers to what’s left of daylight ❤️

I think I want to keep the amethyst one 🥰
Was going to post this update to my stories but it’s too long.

“You must be,” said the Cat, “or you wouldn’t have come here.”

I do hope you love them 🥰

I had 6 clamshells ready to ship this morning but I dropped and lost my last labradorite cabochon 🙄😫

Woe is me. 

But damn I love these little clamshell labradorite + Vegvisir lockets…
Not the story you were told.

The girl didn’t run.
The wolf didn’t win.
This is the version they tried to forget.

🖤 Now in the shop: the Red Riding Hood witchy ring.
