Pyrrha Adds Another House to Their 'Game of Thrones' Jewelry Collection

In April of 2014, Pyrrha teamed up with HBO Global Licensing to create the Pyrrha X Game of Thrones Collection; a line of jewelry based off of the sigils from the most powerful Houses in all of Westeros; including Houses Targaryen, Stark, Baratheon, Tyrell, Lannister and Greyjoy. However, after dominating the current season, viewers have demanded that House Martell be added to the roster, and Pyrrha has provided!

Fans will be able to wear the House Martell sigil beginning this week. The talisman, available in silver or bronze, features the House Martell motto: "unbowed, unbent, unbroken." The House Martell pieces, as well as the rest(eros) are available at Pyrrha online, the HBO store and various retailers across North America. For full details, check out the press release!
