I’m completely besotted with these little cube necklaces from Julian & Co. I love the idea of the necklace, the simple design of a “die” inscribed with the important dates and people in your life.
But what takes this above and beyond for me, is the fact that it’s not just a pretty piece of jewelry. It’s also a wax seal press. Yep, you heard me. Each necklace comes with sealing wax which you can then stamp with your necklace to make a lasting impression.
Do I find myself sealing a lot of letters with wax? Well, no, not at present. But I love the idea of sealing letters with wax. Writing more letters to friends and family is on my resolutions list for the new year. My husband called me a geek for getting so excited about a necklace that was also a wax seal but so be it! I love fountain pens too! And good old fashioned mail and sentimental jewelry. Here we have the perfect nexus of a few of my favorite things.
I think this clever necklace would make a spectacular & thoughtful holiday gift for a lucky recipient.
