Saint Christopher Oval Wax Seal Pendant

$78.00



Sterling Silver Saint Christopher Icon Wax Impression Pendant with Patina.

The impression is made in wax from a beautiful vintage intaglio then cast in metal.

The History of St. Christopher:
Legend has it that St. Christopher was a very large man, maybe even a giant. He served Christ by helping travelers across a mighty river. One day a child asked to cross and St. Christopher obliged. However, as he entered midstream, the river rose and the child's weight grew and became extremely heavy. It was only by great exertion that St. Christopher safely delivered the child to the other side.

When St. Christopher asked the child why he was so heavy, the child explained that He was the Christ and when St. Christopher carried Him, he also carried the weight of the whole world on his shoulders. The child then vanished. Today he is on of the most popular Catholic figures.

He is the Patron of bachelors, transportation, traveling, storms, epilepsy, gardeners, holy death, and toothache

................WHO WE ARE.....................
At VINTAGLIO we value the craft of jewelry making above all else. We are first and foremost creators. Using hot wax, molten metal, torches, hammers, (and a glass of bourbon) we form one-of-kind 18KT gold and sterling pieces of the highest quality.

We are a unique high-end jewelry line that has spent years (and again copious glasses of bourbon) perfecting the wax sealing and casting process to offer you the most stunning wax impression jewelry in the world. But we are much more than just beautiful impressions, we are a "study" in wax. While we love metal, wax is our favorite medium so all of our jewelry is crafted from hand-worked wax.

VINTAGLIO strongly believes that the true beauty is achieved through the ancient art of wax sealing so we would NEVER use molds or metal clay craft our jewelry. It is this time honored process that makes us not only the highest quality wax seal jewelry on the market but one of the few that is truly made from sealing wax.

Because we believe our original source of gold should be treated like gold, VINTAGLIO uses 50% recycled metal in all our casting. We also source sustainable materials whenever possible.

All jewelry is proudly handcrafted one at a time in Dallas, Texas USA.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Custom and personalized orders

    We love custom and personalization here at Vintaglio. Please send us your requests no matter how crazy. Please note that custom and personalized items will take longer. If you are adding initials to a pendant this can add a few days as these items are made on demand.

    How is my international package shipped and tracked?

    Etsy partners with a company called Asendia, in the US who receives your package from USPS and then sends it to you through the your country’s national postal carrier, similar to how USPS sends international packages.

    Global Postal Shipping use a combination of carriers to help ensure a timely delivery. Etsy combines tracking information for each part of the package’s journey to show the history but there can be long gaps between movement. Tracking will be sent in an email when shipped but can also be viewed in the Etsy app and on Etsy.com in your account by visiting (You > Purchases and reviews). This is the only place to review tracking as there is not a number like you might be accustomed to.

    Do you ship UPS, FedEx and DHL for both domestic and international orders?

    Yes. Please let us know if you would like us to quote this option. For international orders it is usually costs more than the actual item purchased but is very quick.

    Magnifique, très beau et de bonne taille, j'apprécie la boucle qui ne fait qu'un avec le pendentif et donne je trouve encore plus de cachet à celui-ci


    Very high quality and well made. Such a great object and I know it's going to last a lifetime. Exceeded my expectations and I will be buying more in the future!


    Great quality. Recommend this to all my friends and family


    Couldn't decide between the Celtic shield knot and and Saint Christopher, so I got both! The craftsmanship here is amazing, these pendants are solid and heavy without being too chunky and look badass. Definitely a staple piece now
