Brooklyn Bridge Charm Sterling Silver | Postcard Charm | Made in USA
The Brooklyn Bridge -- one of America's greatest engineering achievements -- cast in .925 sterling silver and Made in USA. This postcard-style charm weighs 2.6 grams and measures 1/2" x 3/4", depicting the bridge's Gothic arches and suspension cables.
Lost-wax casting preserves the bridge's distinctive stone towers and cable pattern in solid sterling silver. Hand-finishing brings each architectural element to a polished surface while maintaining the structural depth of the design.
Completed in 1883 after fourteen years of construction, the Brooklyn Bridge was the longest suspension bridge in the world and the first to use steel wire cables. Its designer, John Roebling, died from injuries before construction began, and his son Washington took over, only to be incapacitated by caisson disease. Washington's wife Emily became the field engineer who oversaw completion.
Perfect for New York lovers, bridge enthusiasts, engineering admirers, or anyone who has walked across this landmark at sunset. Includes a sterling silver jump ring.
