They appear to take pride in successfully navigating difficult conditions, and having the rider commend or acknowledge them for it.

There is also an established code system of tapping the hippogryph's neck, as it is far easier to communicate through touch in driving winds. Perfectly capable of understanding sentences, they also respond to code sounds. The brave creatures respond to the female riders as if they shared an empathic bond. The Archers mount the flying beasts and are capable of firing their arrows from the hippogryphs' backs. In the heat of battle, Night Elf Archers can call upon the mighty Hippogryphs to carry them into the air.
The hippogryphs are wary of other races, but they're intelligent enough to recognize a friend of a friend. Some say they were created by Cenarius himself as a gift for the night elves.
The intelligent hippogryphs have given their allegiance to the night elves in honor of Cenarius, who stands as the protector of nature and all its creatures. Recently it was also discovered that several hippogryphs live in the northern Howling Fjords. While a few of them can be found in Ashenvale, the majority of hippogryphs inhabit the south-western Feralas and Azshara. They patrol the skies above Kalimdor and viciously attack any enemies of the wilds that they encounter. NOTE: If you would like a certain mounting that has already sold, please inquire as it is possible to recreate that same mounting for another coin.Hippogryphs are ancient, magical beasts whose bodies resemble both stags and ravens. While I personally create the majority of the other settings shown here, those in my Masterpiece Collection are given great attention to design and detail and involve much more work, thereby explaining the higher price.Īncient coin jewelry is probably one of the only types of jewelry that BOTH men and women find fascinating to own, collect and wear. They are what I consider the 'crème de la crème" of my ancient coin works. I completely hand-fabricate these works of art and sign the back with my hallmark, the crossed 'M'. Some of the pieces are classified as MASTERPIECE COLLECTION. My knowledge and experience coupled with an extensive reference library allows me to not only guarantee EACH AND EVERY COIN AS GENUINE, but also provide a relevant history with each piece of jewelry which pertains to the coin. I only acquire my coins from reliable, reputable and legal sources. I have been in business since 1986 and since that time, I have extensively worked with genuine ancient coins, as well served in conservator, curator and consultant roles in a number of international museums. With the mind-boggling proliferation of fake ancient coins on the market, there are people and pieces to AVOID and you should take note of the experience that a jewelry company has with regards to identification and attribution of GENUINE ancient coins. Since the coins used are actual artifacts, authenticity should be a concern. You will usually see a difference, assuming the coins they are using are GENUINE! If you ever see ancient coin jewelry elsewhere, pay close attention to the quality of the coins used and compare the quality and uniqueness of the types that I incorporate in my work. They would most likely even be colored differently due to the varying chemistry of the patina on the metal surface as they lay in the Earth for millennia. Even if you had twenty coins that were struck two thousand years ago from the same die, each one would still be different because of the crude striking methods. I can assure you that each coin is as unique and rare (if not much more!) than any gemstone. Each coin is itself, a unique specimen of ancient art and makes for a true one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry that you can count on no one else will have. Since ancient coins were hand struck from varying hand-engraved dies, no two coins are exactly alike. The rich combination of the gold and silver showcasing the varieties of patinated ancient metal is incredible! Most of the ancient coins I use are of a quality and type that appreciate in value over time just like any other rare collectible. The photos hardly do these pieces justice. Since each coin was struck over a thousand years ago using crude methods, none will be perfectly round and slight adjustments to the coin are typical but not defacing. I have carefully selected each coin from the perspective of a critical collector seeking only coins that possess a nice strike, pleasing detail and beautiful patina. The majority of these coins come from my personal collection that spans over 30 years of advanced collecting. All of my ancient coin jewelry incorporates ONLY AUTHENTIC ancient coins that have been carefully selected for use in my designs.
