Live Life To The Fullest.

This wax seal pendant pictures a Lion, paw raised holding a single rose with the Latin motto below the Lion reads "Vive ut Vivas".....Live Life to the Fullest.
We love this necklace as it serves as a daily reminder to live your life to the fullest, cherish it, enjoy it now, and do what matters now for you only once.

Each wax seal pendant is handmade to order using the original seal, so each one is unique to the person who wears it. Steeped in tradition and familial honor, this wax seal was a cherished heirloom that would have been passed down from generation to generation. It's meaning and symbolism still relevant today, forever captured in this sterling silver pendant.

We have a great blog post that walks you through How to Select the Perfect Necklace Chain

Keep in mind that most jewelry is delicate to some degree. Unfortunately, no matter what you do to protect it, metal will dull and tarnish over time. Contact with lotion, perfume, and daily perspiration will eventually take its toll on jewelry. Moisture and humidly make this happen even faster.

We have also found that if you live close to the ocean or in an area that is more humid, your jewelry may need extra care to keep it looking shiny and new. And, as convenient as it may be to store your jewelry in the bathroom, this too is a bad idea. Store your jewelry in airtight containers or a resealable plastic bag when not in use, this will protect your piece from humidity and prevent tarnishing and scratches when not in use.

A clever little trick is to place a piece of chalk or a silica packet, (you know the kind that comes with a new pair of shoes or purse?) in your jewelry box to collect humidity and delay tarnish. For all of these situations you'll find that a quick wipe with a polishing cloth will return it's luster and remove any tarnish.

You love your jewelry, we get it, but we always recommend removing it before working out or doing household chores that cause perspiration, this will quickly dull your jewelry and you'll find the back of your pendant will look as though it's collected a layer of grime.

The most frequent question we receive is how to remove this build up. We sell little polishing pads that are cellular foam with permanently bonded micro-abrasives that will quickly remove the build up.
