Silver Baby Rattle 925 Boy — Textured Handle

This baby rattle in 925 sterling silver carries a little boy at the end of the handle: he wears a cap, smiles, holds his hands in front of his tummy and stands in boots. It is meant as a silver rattle for boys, for the birth of a son, for a christening or for a baby shower once the sex is already known. The manufacturer is Zaramella Argenti in Italy.

Silver Baby Rattle Boy: Cap, Curls and Boots

At the front the boy shows his smiling face under the cap, curls peek out at the sides, his hands rest in front of his tummy, and sturdy boots stand at the bottom. A small loop sits where the figure meets the handle. The figure as a mirror of the child is an interpretation, not a must: a boy on the rattle for a boy. If you would rather leave the motif open, you will find neutral alternatives below.

At approx. 14 cm in length, the rattle weighs approx. 17.5 g; the silver differs slightly from piece to piece, so both values are guide figures.

Lengthways Grooves and Bow: a Handle to Trace with a Finger

The handle ends in a teardrop shape. Lengthways grooves run across the silver, a bow relief finishes the end of the handle, and small fingers can trace both. The silver is easy to care for: lukewarm water with mild dish soap, then dry it softly. If it darkens, a silver polishing cloth brings the shine back, and a soft brush helps in the grooves. Keep it out of the dishwasher.

Silver Rattle for Boys: Birth, Christening and Gender Reveal Party

For the birth of a son, grandparents and godparents bring the rattle along on their first visit. For a christening it belongs among the christening gifts for boys. At a baby shower or gender reveal party where the sex is known, the boy suits the news.

If the family grows by a girl, the girl rattle stands opposite the boy: handle shape, grooves and bow relief are the same, but the figure is a different one. For twins, a boy and a girl, it makes a pair, and for siblings a gesture that remembers both. For hanging, the boy is also available as a cradle medal.

Engraving and SilberVerse: the Name to Go with the Boy Rattle

Grooves and bow decorate the handle all the way to the end; no free surface for lettering remains. Engraving is therefore not possible. The rattle can still be made personal: on request a SilberVerse card is added, free of charge. It carries a verse of three to four lines, written for the occasion and the name, printed as a 15 × 10 cm photo card and delivered in the standard frame. If you would like the name itself on the silver, the heart handle rattle with a smooth handle is the right choice, as it can be engraved.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Silver Rattle with a Boy Figure

Does the boy look different from behind than from the front?
Yes. The smiling face is at the front, and at the back the figure has a reverse of its own: there are two different sides.

Boy or girl: which rattle fits?
The boy figure suits a son. If the motif should leave both open, the smooth heart handle rattle and the teddy rattle with a smooth handle are neutral. The category silver baby rattles shows further motifs and shapes.

Boy rattle on a handle or on a teething ring?
On the handle you hold the rattle by the grip, with the figure standing at the top. With the boy on the teething ring, a boy with a cap hangs on a pearl-white acrylic ring that the child grasps itself.

What do grandparents give for a grandson’s christening?
Silver is one possibility, for example a rattle like this one, a spoon or a cup. You will find more ideas in the guide for grandparents.

It comes in an elegant gift box, ready to give. The look and design of the box may change.

Has the silver rattle with boy figure been hallmarked?
