September w/ Sapphire Sterling Silver Keepsake

Worn on a chain under a shirt, this upright September pendant sits differently from the flat disc version. It is three quarters of an inch wide and just over an inch tall, so it lies lengthways rather than as a coin against the chest. The sapphire is set near the top of the face.

Access is by a screw at the top of the piece. Capacity is a token portion of ashes, a fraction of a cubic inch, which is all any pendant of this size holds. If you are weighing up the two September pieces, take the round one for something that shows and this one for something that stays out of sight.

• 0.75 in wide by 1.13 in tall, with a screw closure at the top
• Sterling silver and a genuine sapphire; the back face takes engraving
• Sterling darkens around the setting over time, and a jewelry cloth lifts it without touching the stone
