One thing you might want to consider is the length of the chain. My torso is pretty petite, so a 22 inch chain plus a 2-4 inch key would have the key in my cleavage.
I had to be very careful about that, because my pendant is about 3 inches long, and the 18 inch chain brought it too close for my comfort. So we ended up going with a 16 inch, and it''s still a little on the close side (you can''t really tell in this pic, but my zipped up hoodie was showing a bit of cleavage that day), but oh well. I would check with her and make sure that the chain is adjustable.
Thanks for the picture! It is definitely a concern. My dress is a corset top, so I definitely don''t want to draw attention to my cleavage area... LOL I think the dress is already a bit sexy for a wedding
ummmm, YES! i love it--such a pretty pendant & personal & romantic! as for what freke said, even if you want it on a longer chain for everyday wear (the 22") you could always get another shorter chain for the wedding! can''t wait to see the finished product!!
PilsnPinkysMom, if it doesn't suit my dress, i will hang the pendant on my bouquet.
ETA: My dress has beading so a necklace is not a must. I don't want to look OTT glam. If i do decide to choose something else, it will be a simple design.
Julia does beautiful work. I''ve attached a photo of my key from her incorporating our first initials (J and J) with our last initial (M). The J''s help to start and end the M.
Her chains are adjustable as she puts several "O" rings in multiple spots between the links to give you 3 places to clasp the necklace. It works really well.
The price for a silver key is 75 dollars, the diamond accent is 25 dollars, and the 22" chain is 25 dollars!!
I think it is very fair, considering she spend a LOT of time sending designs.
I rejected 5 or 6 of her previous designs before I found something i was completely happy with. If you guys are thinking about working with her, she is completely marvelous and friendly, BUT she is very busy at the moment, and her response times varies from 15 minutes after I hit send to 2 days later.
I think it will look lovely... and if the chain is too long just substitute a smaller one. I also liked the idea of hanging it on your bouquet if it doesn''t work with your dress.
Absorutery - I love her designs and its very romantic that it has his initials on it...I''m thinking about getting one
with my kids initials done but havent done anything about it.
