Vulpine Witcher Medalion 2.0
this medalion I made for myself as a bit of a milestone and loveletter to my grandparents. its inspired by the Witcher Medalion from Netflix but this time with a Fox, my favorite animal.
The inscription on the back is engraved by Kraai Gravering and I’ll go into detail about it below.
This is my 147th project, a personal inportant number to me. so I am glad a project this personal is my personal milestone.
the inscription is as followed.
In Green: ‘‘| Geniet | van | het | leven | want | het | duurt | maar | heel | even |’’
’’ enjoy life because it only lasts a moment’’. Something Grandma Toosje said, they were even one of her last words.
In Yellow: ‘‘| Oma | Toosje | Doortje | Opa | Koosje | Wim | Pigmans | vd Heuvel |’’
‘‘ Grandma Toosje Doortje Grandpa Koosje Wim’’ My grandparents and my family names.
In pink: ‘‘| 147 |’’
My personal lucky number, a number I had with me since I was small. dating back to my online alias ‘‘ Balthazar147’’
In Purple: ‘‘| Nogsteeds | jouw | vriend |’’
‘‘Still your friend’’ Grandpa Koosje often asked me when it got silent in the room if I was still his friend. So this is a reply to my answer to him. Yes grandpa I’m still your friend and will always be.
In Blue: ‘‘|Tussen de Teentjes |’’
’’’between the toes’’ After being bathed by Grandma Doortje she’d always stress the inportance of drying your toes. While I still dont fully know why, the playfull demeanor she said it with to me as a young boy always stuck with me
In Red: ‘‘| Luf jou | More n more |’’
’’Love you more and more’’ Our farewell greeting to Grandma Toosje. the more and mores were an ongoing battle of attrition.
