Illuminate the night, or day, with a delightful waxing crescent moon wax seal necklace pendant - sterling silver inspirational wax seal jewelry.

Every one is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody ~ Mark Twain

symbolism -
In heraldry, the moon is emblematic of serenity and serene power over mundane actions. The crescent represents one who hopes of greater glory or one who has been honored by the sovereign.
The waxing crescent moon is symbolic of new beginnings and a call to action. It’s a great time to work toward the goals that are right in front of you.
Extremely popular during the Georgian and Victorian eras, the crescent represented change, cycles, and the ebb and flow of life.

- approximate measurement - 5/8" x 5/8" (17mm x 15mm) plus platinum loop
- photographed with a US dime and inch ruler for scale

- wax seal charm metal - platinum

Impressed in wax from a small Scottish Victorian Era (1837 - 1901) carved carnelian agate desk wax seal and lost wax cast in platinum.

note -  the pendant is not oxidized, as they are in sterling silver, and what you see here is different light angles, where sometimes the seal looks dark as though oxidized and sometimes shiny where you can see the gorgeous texture of the antique wax seal from which it was impressed in wax before casting in platinum.  the soldered jump ring is also platinum and the pendant has been hallmarked as platinum.

Impressed with history!
