Profile does most of the work when a wolf is reduced to a silhouette. A pricked ear, a straight muzzle and a deep cheek ruff are the three marks the eye needs, and all three are modelled into these heads, which face left in the classic side view.
Where the neck would carry on, the design opens into interlaced knotwork: raised bands that cross over and under one another and carry the shape down to a point at the base. It follows an old habit in northern metalwork, letting an animal trail off into ornament rather than end at the shoulder.
The channels between the bands are darkened, so the raised metal stays bright and the weave stays easy to follow at arm's length. The head above is finished the same way, dark in the fur lines and bright along the brow and muzzle. It is a lot of pattern held in a small, clean outline.
The wider range sits in wolf earrings, and the wolf as a totem animal is worth reading if you are choosing by meaning.
