Twenty-five characters from the angular Croatian Glagolitic hand — uglata glagoljica — each one cast, unaltered, in solid 9ct gold.
The pendant is taken directly from the historic letterform: the strokes, the openings and the squared corners are the letter's own, not a modern redrawing of it. Two fine loops are cast as part of the letter itself, so the chain sits flush and the piece hangs straight.
- Solid metal throughout — not hollow, not plated
- 9ct yellow gold or 9ct white gold
- Dimensions vary by letter and are shown with your selection
- Made to order — allow up to 12 business days before dispatch
Made one at a time rather than held in stock, and built to be worn every day and handed on — a letter that has already lasted a thousand years, in a metal that will last as long again.
