Clapboard Charm Sterling Silver | Movie Jewelry | Made in USA

The Clapboard — cast in solid .925 sterling silver and proudly Made in USA through traditional lost-wax casting.

Each piece begins as a hand-sculpted wax model, encased in investment plaster, and burned out at 1,350 degrees before molten sterling silver is poured at over 1,640 degrees Fahrenheit. A centrifugal caster generates roughly 50 G's of force to push molten silver into every fine detail — a 6,500-year-old technique dating back to ancient Egypt and Rome.

The film director's clapboard — used on every movie set since the earliest days of synchronized sound — is rendered in sterling silver with the hinged clapper bar visible. At 3.1 grams, this charm captures a piece of cinema history.

Comes with a sterling silver jump ring attached and ready to hang from a charm bracelet, necklace chain, or pair of ear wires for instant earrings. Makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who connects with the clapboard — birthdays, holidays, or just because.
