Kite Charm Sterling Silver | Beach Charm | Made in USA

A diamond kite with a streaming tail — caught mid-flight in .925 sterling silver and Made in USA at 3/4" x 7/8".

The lost-wax casting captures the kite's taut diamond shape, the cross-spar structure, the bridle attachment point, and a long ribbon tail frozen in a graceful curve. At 2.5 grams, this charm has solid weight and a dynamic sense of motion. Hand-finishing produces a polished surface that catches light like a kite catches wind.

Kites were invented in China over 2,800 years ago and have served as scientific instruments, military signals, weather tools, and — most importantly — the purest possible expression of a windy afternoon. Benjamin Franklin flew one into a thunderstorm. The Wright brothers studied kite aerodynamics before building their first airplane.

A breezy gift for beach lovers, spring festival enthusiasts, park-going families, or anyone who looks up when the wind picks up. Arrives with a sterling silver jump ring attached, ready for a bracelet or pendant chain.
