• The polished edges and soft patina bring depth and definition, enhancing the pendant’s subtle “window” effect.

Why It Resonates

Cedar has long symbolized strength, grounding, and protection. This pendant is a gentle talisman — a daily reminder to breathe deeply and trust your roots. Crafted with intention and care, it invites you to carry a whisper of the forest close to your heart.

Care & Wearability 

• Keep away from harsh chemicals, perfumes, and saltwater

• Clean gently with a soft silver polishing cloth (avoid abrasive pads)
• Over time, a soft patina may continue to develop — this is part of the natural aging process and adds character
