Absolutely beautiful piece that I purchased as a memorial item. It’s tiny and detailed, and I’m so grateful it came when it did.

This is such a sweet pendant, a little smaller than I had anticipated but the impression in the sterling is PERFECT !!!
It is such a wonderful notion that these beautiful antique wax seals are not only collected, but imprinted in metal for a lasting impression, forever !!!
Romantic feels all the way ..... so beautiful thank you so much.
I will be back for MORE 🙏🏼❤️🥰💌

I love this necklace so much. I bought it to mark a personal accomplishment. I received it in about 1 week from the date I was notified it was shipped. I was amazed at how fast it was delivered. My only regret was my own fault for not ordering it with a longer chain. But I've ordered an new chain from Plum and Posey which is already on its way.

A beautiful piece, as always, this is my second pendant. It was a bit smaller and thinner than I wanted to I switched it for a bit larger, more substantial pendant, which I love. The customer service was excellent to exchange it and shipping was timely. Highly recommended.
J
The stamp pendant is great and seems really good quality. The chain though is another story. It’s been worn for two days and broke already. I guess I’ll have to buy a real quality one to complete it again
