The hand formed symbol has been highly textured then darkened and buffed to add to its dark and rustic look.

The official interpretation of serpent symbolism is that it means wisdom. The serpent, sometimes depicted as a dragon, is perhaps the most confusing of esoteric symbols. The serpent is an expression of our higher and lower consciousness. Given the serpent was used by ancient cultures the width and breadth of the globe for thousands of years, its importance cannot be ignored. As with all symbols, the snake has positive and negative connotations, but its very meanings are central to understanding human consciousness and the psycho-biological process of mankind.
In actual fact, the serpent/dragon is one of the keys to understanding transcendence to higher states of consciousness and how we tend to fall foul of our sub-conscious mind. But through the serpent, we can find wisdom to overcome our lower conscience self and discover the higher self – that aspect of our personalities that religions call ‘God.’
At its deepest level, the serpent is a symbol of rebirth and renewal. Just as a snakes sheds its skin, humans have the capacity to defeat old values that no longer serve us and develop improved values.
The symbol of the serpent is a key component of the Bible, particularly in the Old Testament. And its appearance in the Garden of Eden is perhaps the most misunderstood concept in theology.
