Personalized Wax Seal and Birds Nest Necklace - Vintage Inspired, Boho Style, Monogrammed
$136.00
Two, 2 Sisters favourites combine, with the wax seal initial necklace, and our turquoise gemstone birds nest pendant to make one perfectly vintage & monogrammed necklace. Rustic and vintage meet today's modern style for a personalized and custom piece.
This piece includes:
- a 99.9% pure fine silver, raw pressed, authentic wax seal initial pendant. Measures approx 7/8", very thick and has a pretty paisley pattered back in case it flips while wearing it. More initials can be added from the drop down options above. Choose your custom initial monogram.
- an oxidized, sterling silver, hand wrapped birds nest with your choice of 1-5 turquoise or fresh water pearl eggs. Choose how many you would like for the look of to represent one for each child.
- a sterling silver 16" or 18" ball chain, cable chain or 2.5mm rolo chain (shown). A 24" chain upgrade is also available.
- all components are quality, solid 925 sterling silver except for the 999 fine silver wax seal.
* Each piece is made to order and will fall in line with current production times. Please see the link below.
How it's made: Pure precious silver is 99% pure, making it more desirable and more expensive that sterling silver. It will also be much thicker than sterling giving it a beautiful wearable weight. Because it's so thick, it's work far more than some of the other pendants you may see. It starts as a clay that can be molded, stamped and textured in any way imaginable. I roll the clay and weigh it for a uniform size. Then I press a vintage inspired wax seal stamped into the clay and let it do what it wants. No 2 pieces will ever be the same. It will be perfectly imperfect with raw edges and a rustic, old world feel with texture lines. I then let it dry, sand it to smoothness, and fire in a kiln for approx 3 hours. Once fired, it is solid 99% pure silver. I then wire brush it, file and sand it some more and when I'm happy with the texture I oxidize the piece to leave dark in the low areas and to highlight the high areas. Finally it goes in a tumbler for a final glimmering polish and to add extra strength. Long process, Yes. But sooooo worth it!!
All orders arrive gift wrapped and ready for gift giving or as a special gift for yourself.
