Sterling Silver Knight in Shining Armor Charm | Renaissance Jewelry | Medieval Jewelry | Made in USA

A knight in shining armor — lance raised, shield forward — cast in .925 sterling silver through the ancient lost-wax method. At 7/8" x 3/8" and 1.5 grams, this slender figure is all chivalric elegance.

No two of these knights come out exactly identical from the hand-finishing process. Each is individually filed, sanded, and polished to bring out the segmented armor plates, the pointed visor, and the lance's sharp tip. That's the nature of handcraft — slight variations that machine production eliminates but artisans consider a feature.

The knight in shining armor has been a symbol of protection, honor, and romantic rescue since the age of courtly love in the 12th century. Troubadours sang of them; tapestries depicted them; and the image endures today as shorthand for someone who shows up when you need them most.

Makes a romantic Valentine's Day gift, a meaningful anniversary charm, or a playful addition for Renaissance faire enthusiasts and medieval history fans. Arrives with a sterling silver jump ring attached and ready to wear.
