Anyone that knows me understands that I am a very sentimental gal. If you need proof of this fact, just go into my garage and witness the FOUR GIANT plastic tubs filled to the brim with every memento I've kept throughout my life. This sentimentality is also expressed in the jewelry I love.
There is nothing more special than wearing a beautiful piece of jewelry which holds some significance to you. The Pretty Peacock must have read my mind when they created their lines of jewelry, because all of the pieces they carry are custom made to represent and remind you of the special people in your life.
I have to say that I was very surprised when I received my Love You to the Moon Pendant from The Pretty Peacock. I just couldn't believe how beautiful the box was wrapped! If you notice in the two pictures below, the jewelry box was wrapped in a pretty burgundy tissue paper and tied with a brown piece of ribbon. There was even a little informative card tucked inside which also thanked me for my purchase, as well as an actual peacock feather...definitely a very classy touch!
When I opened the jewelry box, I was equally stunned. The pendant was very beautiful. The picture on the lower left shows my pendant, but I also wanted to include the picture from The Pretty Peacock's website, since my photo didn't really seem to capture how beautiful this necklace is. I had my husband and my daughter's name engraved on the bottom, which makes this piece all the more special to me. I love that now I can wear them both close to my heart. All of the jewelry from The Pretty Peacock is handcrafted in Seattle and each pendant has text that is hand stamped and guaranteed to look great for a lifetime.
As you can see from the pictures below, the pendant actually consists of several pieces. First, the bottom layer is a domed, sterling silver disc which has your loved ones names engraved on it. The only critique that I have of this necklace is that I wish the names on my pendant were just a little lower. When you look at the pendant straight on, you can't really read either name clearly because both names are stamped a little high.
Next, there is a copper disc which has the words "Love You to the Moon" stamped on it, along with either a single scroll or double scroll heart of your choice. I chose the double scroll heart. Then, there is a sterling silver open, crescent moon figure which sits atop the other two discs. When you're wearing this necklace, all three discs move around independently and help to make this one eye-catching necklace.
Finally, the discs are attached with a very unique looking, sterling silver bail that glides along a sterling silver chain. The chain is adjustable, so you can wear this necklace in a variety of lengths.
The Pretty Peacock makes many unique and inspiring designs, perfect for wearing yourself or giving as a gift. If you are a sentimental soul like I am, or know someone who is, please check out the wonderful ways to express yourself at The Pretty Peacock. I'm sure you will discover a piece of jewelry which will soon become a cherished keepsake.
