I designed this ankh charm pendant for a friend who wanted something traditional, and I love how it turned out! It has that authentic, ancient Egyptian vibe—like something you’d see carved on the walls of a temple. It’s a piece that’s perfect for anyone, no matter who you are. Available in .925 sterling silver, antique bronze or stainless steel! But it's not just about looks! The ankh is rich with meaning, symbolizing both life on earth and the afterlife. It's like wearing a little piece of ancient wisdom around your neck. So, if you're into history or just want a beautiful, meaningful accessory, this ankh charm pendant has got you covered! Details: Pendant Dimensions: 1.4cm wide, 2.9m high with a bail opening of 4.5mm. Materials: available in .925 sterling silver, a mix of 92.5% fine silver and 7.5% copper, antique bronze, a mix of 90% copper and 10% tin, or stainless steel. All are free of nickel, zinc or cadmium, which are common metal allergens, which can cause rashes and sores. For more info on bronze, read my blog post or consult my FAQ. Stainless steel is an affordable material to create hypoallergenic jewellery for those sensitive to costume jewellery. Stainless steel is a tougher material than gold and silver and is ideal for everyday wear for those that are hard on your jewellery. The stainless steel I use is 316L grade to make sure you get no allergic reactions as 316L grade stainless steel is nickel free, lead free and cadmium free. Moreover, stainless steel is water resistant and doesn't tarnish and doesn't required a lot of care. It does take more work to finish pieces cast in stainless steel and can take longer to get cast, so the processing time is 2-3 weeks depending on the caster. Shipping info: Shipping is with tracking and full insurance. For international buyers, please be aware of taxes and duties are payable to your country and must be paid by the buyer and is not collected by me. Please note that my pendants do not come with chains due to the high cost of materials. However, you can browse a variety of chains in the Chains & Engravings section of my shop.

The ankh, also called the "cross with a handle," is this amazing ancient Egyptian symbol that means "life." You’ll often see Egyptian gods holding it by the loop or even crossed over their chests—it’s everywhere in their art! The symbol was so widespread that it’s been found as far as Mesopotamia and Persia, and even on the seal of King Hezekiah from the Bible. It’s also had a big comeback in modern times, especially during the New Age movement in the '60s. Pretty cool, right? Now, imagine wearing that history around your neck! This Ankh charm pendant is more than just a piece of jewellery—it’s a tribute to life, immortality, and ancient wisdom. Whether you’re gifting it to someone special or adding it to your own collection, it brings a touch of timeless magic to any day!
