the story
Did you have an unforgettable night with a beautiful Moon that you would like to remember forever? Are you curious about how the Moon looked the day you were born? The day your parents met? Do you want to save the date of an upcoming night event? Keep that Moon very close to you with these customized lunar phases' charms: you tell me the date, I look up the phase the moon was/will be during that date in your location (can go as far back or forward in time as you might need!), and I'll craft the moon especially for you!!
In this 14k gold version, I can't apply black patina to enhance the contrast between the Moon and sky because gold doesn't react to patina. The Moon phase is achieved by making the bright and dark side of the Moon in two different layers. However, please notice that New Moons are not possible to make in gold: without the patina, they look like a Full Moon.
how it's made
I make the corresponding lunar phase in solid 14k yellow gold, then I engrave little craters and moon marks (true to the real ones). I can also engrave the chosen date on the back of the moon. Finally, I attach the charm to a delicate solid gold cable chain. But, if you already have a chain you can purchase the charm separately!
individually hand-engraved, truly one of a kind!
The Under This Moon collection is my bestseller. Since I came up with the idea in 2012 I've made over 10,000 Moons! and I engrave the craters and date by hand for every single one of them because I want every Moon to be as unique as the moment you want to commemorate.
