Unsure of the size of a wax seal pendant? Please be sure to read our detailed descriptions carefully - you'll find accurate measurements in both inches and millimeters. The wax seal pendant is created by impressing an actual antique wax seal into the silver so the size of the pendant is dependent on the size of the original antique seal … some are very small and some are larger and this is not accurately reflected in the enlarged photos. The sentiment or text on many of the wax seal pendants is tiny, faint and challenging to read because that’s the actual impression from the original antique seal, which is often tiny and faint.

Engraving and Personalization

Sorry, we don't engrave the wax seal charms but check with your local jeweler and perhaps they can do the engraving for you.

If your ring size is not included in the drop down box of ring sizes we can likely still make a custom sized ring for you. Simply select "other" from the drop down box and add a note, with your ring size, to your order. Custom rings are not returnable.

Sterling silver tarnishes/reacts when exposed to the elements: salty air, humidity, sulfur, chlorine, salts, cosmetics, perspiration, household bleach and other chemicals. When not wearing your jewelry store it in the glass top container it arrived in, with that black anti-tarnish square. You can remove the cotton ~ that was used to protect it during shipping. To prevent tarnish as much as possible, avoid wearing your jewelry in the shower, pools, hot tubs and ocean. Avoid wearing it while exercising, cleaning, applying body lotions, fragrances and hair products, etc. If the high areas begin to tarnish gently rub a silver polishing cloth over the area to be shined: www.etsy.com/listing/82422231/silver-polishing-pad-for-wax-seal?

Can I order an oxidized chain with the necklace?

Yes, we're happy to oxidize the chain for you. Simply, select the chain length and add the item to your shopping cart. Once in the shopping cart, under the photo of the item, notice the box that says "Add a note to suegrayjewelry (optional)" and write "oxidize chain" in the box.

Packaging and Gift Giving

Your wax seal jewelry item will arrive in a small glass topped tin along with an informational card describing the provenance and symbolism of the antique wax seal from which it was impressed. The entire order is tucked into a signature cloth bag, wrapped in tissue. Is this a gift? Simply enter the recipients address at checkout and include a short personalized note and we will include a handwritten note tag on your behalf ~ it’s a small tag so please keep it brief. *Please note, orders going to different addresses will need to be ordered separately so that you can enter the address for each destination. Receipts are not included in the packaging since they are emailed to you when you place the order.

Antique Boxes shown in photos

Please note that the antique boxes and other photo props don't come with your jewelry orders and are not available for purchase ... sorry! See the packaging and gift giving information above to see how your jewelry will arrive.

Custom changes to jewelry items

Most items you see listed here are finished and ready to ship so if you’re thinking of making any changes or requests, no matter how minor it may seem, to any jewelry item listed please discuss them with me prior to placing your order. I will do my best to please but oftentimes these changes take extra time and there will be additional fees so it is important that I create a custom listing for you to reflect the changes. If you’ve already ordered I will need to cancel your order so that we can discuss possibilities and then I’ll create the custom order for you to purchase in order to get started. And please note, there are no returns, exchanges or refunds on custom orders since they are jewels made just for you.

Highlights

Unlock a world of possibility with a tiny skeleton key necklace charm. The key is 3 dimensional, no flat back side.
Select the tiny skeleton key with a jump ring if you'd prefer it to hang flat as a pendant - depicted in the first 3 photos.
Choose the tiny skeleton key with no jump ring if you want the key suspended directly on the chain which does not lie flat when suspended mid-air but will lie more flatly when supported up against your body - photos 4 -7 show this.

In heraldry, a key is symbolic of authority, sentiment and possibility.
