Victoria

This medallion, carved from mammoth tusk, is an artifact of triumph, crafted for a true Conqueror. It embodies the image of Victoria—not merely the goddess of victory, but a living, regal visage whose power radiates from within.
​The sculpture conveys a moment of absolute serenity after a decisive battle. The face is calm, yet the head is encircled by a halo resembling flames or rays—a symbol of the indomitable energy and will that achieved the goal. The hair, stylized like tongues of fire, speaks to the passion and spirit possessed by the Conqueror.
​This bolo tie, suspended on a silk cord with carved tusk tips, is an oath rendered in material. It serves as a constant reminder of the price and glory of victory, and that true leadership requires both the fury of fire and the calm of stone.
​Height 8.1 cm. Carved from mammoth tusk.
