I cut out an aluminum rectangle. I sanded and filed it until nice and smooth. I hand stamped each letter and design onto the rectangle. I then blackened the letters to make them stand out. The pendant hangs from a 24 inch stainless steel chain. Please Note: Due to the handmade nature, your necklace may not look exactly as pictured. Rectangle measures about 1.5 in. by .5 in. aluminum, stainless steel Made to order.
