This design is a larger version of our smaller acorn and oak leaf pewter necklace. It comes on a longer and thicker 30" hallmarked Sterling silver chain, hanging much lower on the body, and would be ideal to wear over a winter jumper. (See comparison photo and related necklace below).

Pewter Jewellery Inspired by Oak Trees

Enduring and steadfast, strong and mighty, the oak tree symbolises: hospitality, stability, strength, honour, eternity, endurance and liberty.

Acorns and Oak Leaves

Acorns are a symbol of patience and the fruition of long, hard labour as they only appear on mature trees. They also represent luck, prosperity and growth; as well as youthfulness strength and stability.

This necklace would make an ideal 18th or 21st Birthday Gift, or Graduation Present. "Great Oaks from Little Acorns grow". Symbolising maturing and flourishing from small beginnings.

Pewter Handmade in Wiltshire

All our jewellery designs are handmade from solid polished lead-free pewter which is non-tarnishing (that was the lead in old pewter) and are guaranteed nickel and allergen-free. We make Sterling silver jump rings to attach the pewter components to the chain. The chain used on this design is much longer and thicker than our other necklaces. It is a 30 inch (76 cm) Hallmarked Sterling Silver 2.5 mm Belcher chain. The chain is long enough to be taken on and off over the head.

Using solid pewter means that the surface of your oak leaf and acorn necklace will never flake like a silver plated necklace. Just wash with soapy water and occasionally use a silver cloth on the silver components.

All Glover and Smith Pewter necklace designs are made exclusively by us in our Studio Workshops near Salisbury in Wiltshire.
