Use our Charm Jewelry Builder to design a custom necklace or bracelet with this charm. This special pendant is inspired by antique Vesta Cases, once used to hold matches. We invite you to use this vessel to carry whatever lights you up—tuck a tiny love note, mantra, or manifestation wish inside. A nod to Hart’s coastal Charleston roots, love of the sea, and the taste of a damn good oyster. Hidden inside is a genuine pearl—a symbol of beauty, fertility, and wisdom. In mythology, oysters are linked to femininity, beauty, and love, famously with Aphrodite's birth from the sea on an oyster shell. Charm details: Dimensions: 22mm tall, 14mm wide Materials: Genuine pearl sits inside the Vesta Case Tarnish resistant 18K gold-plating that is long-lasting with proper care Our plating thickness is 4x industry standard for extra durability (80 mils vs. 20 mils) Plated over quality brass (vs. a cheap, lightweight alloy); nickel-free Responsibly manufactured; plated with recycled gold in an environmentally-friendly facility Care: You can best preserve your jewelry by removing it before sleeping and showering, and reducing exposure to sweat, salt water, and chemicals in chlorine, tanners, perfume, makeup, and lotions. However, we know that these rules are somewhat unrealistic, and life happens. If exposed, clean your jewels with our Cleaning Kit for best results.
