Fairly made, fairly priced

The Sappho Pendant encapsulates the spirit of the iconic ancient lyric poet, celebrated not just for her profound and passionate verses, but also for her significant role as a symbol of love and desire between women. The pendant, cast in the style of a timeless wax seal cameo, features the profile of Sappho, the 'Tenth Muse', intricately detailed and beautifully rendered in ethically sourced recycled solid gold.

Sappho's name has long been synonymous with the affirmation of female homoerotic passion, and her legacy resonates as a beacon of feminine self-expression and empowerment. Her verses, speaking candidly of love and longing, have echoed through the ages, reflecting the universality of human emotions.

To wear this pendant is to embrace love in all its forms. It's a statement of admiration for the audacity of a woman who dared to express her feelings freely, in an era where such openness was a rarity. Let the spirit of Sappho inspire you to embrace love, in all its beauty and complexity.

About Solid Gold ✨

Solid gold is the best option if you:

1. Want to wear your piece forever or pass it down as an heirloom. Solid gold will last for centuries without degrading.

2. Want to invest in jewelry as an asset rather than an accessory. Gold traditionally appreciates in value and can always be melted down and made into a new piece

Unlike many brands, our gold is never hollow - it is always 100% solid, cast using the lost wax method, meaning there is a lot more gold in each piece.

Our gold is 100% certified recycled and each piece is handcrafted here in New York.

When will my piece ship? 🚚

Gold Vermeil pieces ship same day or next business day.

We keep a small inventory of solid gold pieces - please check about the 'Add to Cart' button to see if your piece is in stock.

If not, it will display the estimated ship time so that we can custom make it for you in our NYC studio.

What does Traditional Retail Price mean? 💸

Most brands sell through boutiques and department stores, where the pricing model is usually a 2 - 4x markup from their wholesale price. For example, the jewelry brand sells the piece to the store for $1000, and then the store sells it to you for $2,500.

Because Common Era sells directly from our studio, we can give our customers the same pricing we would be giving to wholesale stores.

About Gold Vermeil

Gold Vermeil, pronounced ver-may, is a french term for a style of gold plating that is regulated by the federal government. Unlike "gold plated" jewelry, vermeil must always be on a solid 925 sterling silver base - rather than brass - with at least 2.5 microns thickness of gold. This is 3 times thicker than normal gold plating.

This makes vermeil a longer lasting product than gold plated jewelry, as well as more valuable because it's composed entirely of precious metals.

FAQ

When will my order ship?

What if my piece is lost in the mail?

Does your jewelry come in a box or a pouch?

Both! Our packaging is made in Chicago and consists of a peach-colored vegan suede pouch in a branded box, so they’re easy to wrap up as gifts.
