The pendant is the whole story here: a scalloped, shield-shaped plate of oxidised brass, its surface engraved edge to edge with a flowing leaf-and-vine pattern that fans outward from a central stem. It hangs from a simple beaded ball chain, long enough to let the pendant sit comfortably at the collarbone.
There's no stone on this one — the entire design rests on the depth and cleanliness of the engraving, finished in a silver-replica tone that reads as polished antique silver rather than the darker oxidised black of some of our other pieces.
A strong solo piece over a plain kurta or shirt, where the engraving gets to be the focal point without competing with other jewellery.
Daily wear, casual festive days, or anyone who prefers an engraved metal pendant over a stone-set one.
The scalloped shield shape on this pendant is the same family silhouette used across a few pieces in this batch, but the engraving pattern here is a flowing, fanned vine rather than the butterfly accents on its sibling design — worth comparing the two product photos side by side if you're deciding between them, since the engraving is really the only point of difference and it does change the overall character noticeably. The vine pattern reads as more organic and continuous, where the butterfly version has more small, distinct motifs breaking up the surface.
Because there's no stone setting anywhere on this pendant, it's also one of the lowest-maintenance pieces in the collection — there's no risk of a stone loosening or a setting catching on fabric, just a solid engraved plate that only needs the basic care steps below to keep its shine.
We'd suggest this piece for a housewarming or birthday gift for someone who prefers understated, engraved metal jewellery over stone-set pieces. It's styled with daily wear occasions in mind, though like most of our jewellery it isn't restricted to just one kind of event.
A quick note on the finish: brass is used as the base metal across our oxidised jewellery because it holds fine engraving and stone-setting better than softer metals, and the darkened, antiqued surface is achieved through an oxidation process rather than paint or coating — which is why it wears evenly rather than chipping or flaking the way a surface coating eventually would. It's the same reason oxidised jewellery is often described as getting more character with age rather than looking worn out.
Care Instructions:
This is brass with a gold-tone plating rather than solid gold, which keeps the price where it is and the weight low enough to wear comfortably. Plating is a surface rather than a bulk property, so how long it lasts depends almost entirely on what it meets — perfume, hairspray and sweat all shorten it, while a dry cloth after wearing and a closed pouch between wearings extend it considerably.
Put this on after perfume, hairspray and hand cream, and take it off before washing, swimming or sleeping. Wipe with a dry soft cloth and use a dry soft brush around the stone settings and between any pearls, where a cloth cannot reach. Store it in a zip-lock pouch — the single most effective thing for a plated piece, because it keeps humid air off the metal. Never use silver polish, dip cleaners or an ultrasonic cleaner.
