Silver pendant Chai

The silver pendant Chai is a powerful and symbolic piece of jewelry that combines traditional craftsmanship and modern simplicity. The Jewish symbol Chai, which represents life, takes center stage in a robust yet refined design. The combination of rough silver, embossing and high polish makes this amulet a piece of jewelry with character and meaning.

Symbolism and meaning

The Chai, formed by the Hebrew letters chet and yud, represents life, happiness and meaning. Wearing a Chai is a personal expression of vitality and connection. As an amulet, the symbol recalls the power of life itself and acts as a tangible sign of protection and positivity.

Design and implementation

The pendant consists of a roughly worked base plate with a raised outer edge. In the center is a highly polished embossed Chai, giving it added depth and radiance. The contrast between the matte, rough background and the glossy symbol creates a powerful visual balance. This alternation of textures gives the design a vibrant and timeless feel.

Craft and character

I craft this pendant entirely by hand in my studio. The rough machining of the silver emphasizes the uniqueness of each piece; no two pendants are exactly alike. The sturdy construction and careful finish make the pendant durable, yet comfortable to wear.

An amulet with meaning

The silver pendant Chai is more than a piece of jewelry. It is an amulet that symbolizes life and protection, offering a modern interpretation of an ancient symbol thanks to its subtle relief and handcrafted finish.
