When I came across this Mid-Century LOVE stamp on Ebay I literally fell off my chair getting it to the checkout. I have always had a little bit of a hippie inside me and this wax seal stamp was calling out her name.
Along the same lines as my Sealed with Love pendant, I wanted a chunky talisman style of charm to wear on a chain and I used the same technique as before with modeling Fimo. Once I had an imprint I was happy with (I got it on the third attempt) a mould was made and then it was cast in solid sterling silver. I am so happy with how this piece turned out.
I add a 1.5mm thick round bail to each pendant for the chain to run through and, after a bit of experimenting, the pendant definitely looks better lightly oxidised, highlighting the raised areas and the letters. Each one is then polished and you can choose the usual standard Trace chain lengths. Each pendant weighs 7.8g, including the bail, and has a diameter of 18mm.
Material – solid sterling silver.
Hallmarked in Edinburgh.
The Hippie LOVE Token will arrive in a Silverpickle gift box, tied with ribbon and includes a polishing cloth.
Please allow 5-7 days for delivery of this item.
