Sterling Silver Origami Crane Charm: a Symbol of Hope | Made in USA
At 3 grams of solid .925 sterling silver, this Origami Crane charm carries real weight and craftsmanship — Made in USA.
The .925 sterling alloy uses copper — not nickel — in the remaining 7.5%, making it safe for the estimated 10-20% of the population with nickel sensitivity. Lost-wax casting is a 6,500-year-old technique that produces sculptural 3D depth no stamping or machine pressing can achieve, followed by over 8 hours of hand-finishing per batch.
The origami crane — or orizuru — has been Japan's most iconic paper fold for centuries. Legend holds that folding 1,000 cranes grants a wish. This charm renders the crane's angular wings and tail in 3D sterling silver at 1" x 3/4".
The included sterling silver jump ring makes this charm ready to wear on a bracelet or chain, or buy two and pair with ear wires for a matched set of earrings. An ideal gift for collectors, hobbyists, and anyone who appreciates handcrafted American silver.
