Cradle Medal 925 silver heart — rattle pendant on a satin ribbon

No handle, no ring: this cradle medal consists of a flat, smooth heart in 925 sterling silver hanging from a white satin bow. Zaramella Argenti makes the cradle medal in Italy, intended as a pendant for the nursery.

Cradle medal heart silver: flat heart on a white satin bow

The bow is tied from white satin, with two ribbons falling loosely downwards. The heart sits in the centre of the bow and has a small silver eyelet at the top. It is high-gloss polished and without embossing; the whole surface remains free. As a silver heart pendant for the baby it has no grip; it is hung up and looked at. With the bow, the rattle pendant measures approx. 11 cm and weighs approx. 24 g. Satin ribbon and pendant belong out of the baby's reach.

Cradle medal with engraving: the heart surface

The heart surface is suited to a name, date or initials. You place the engraving order with the engraving service flat rate; we will agree the text in conversation with you, which adds 1–3 working days of delivery time. If you want to say more, ask about the SilberVerse card, which is available free of charge: three or four lines of verse in a language of your choice, printed on 15 × 10 cm photo paper and delivered in a standard frame in silver, white or black (SilberVerse).

Two cradle medals: smooth and with flowers

The cradle medal comes in two versions: this smooth heart and the cradle medal with heart and flowers, where flowers cover the heart. For twins or two siblings it is an obvious idea to choose one of each: same shape, different motif, a pair that belongs together. If you would rather hold the smooth heart than hang it, you will also find it as a handle rattle, small handle rattle and teething ring; also available are the ball rattle with heart medallion and the gift set. The whole selection: baby rattles in silver.

Frequently asked questions about the heart cradle medal

What is a cradle medal, and how does it differ from a heart rattle?
A cradle medal is a silver pendant on a bow that is meant to be hung up. Unlike the handle rattle it has neither grip nor ring; as a rattle pendant it nevertheless belongs to the world of baby rattles for us.

What goes on the heart if I have it engraved?
A first name and date of birth are usual. The surface is smooth and without a pattern; we will agree the wording with you.

Smooth or with flowers: what is the difference?
The smooth heart (approx. 11 cm, approx. 24 g) carries an engraving. The cradle medal with flowers is smaller and lighter (approx. 10 cm, approx. 14 g), carries the floral relief and cannot be engraved; on request it comes with a SilberVerse card instead.

What occasion is the cradle medal meant for?
Intended as a gift for the start of life, for example for a christening.

How is the cradle medal delivered?
With the white satin bow in an elegant gift box, ready to hand over. The design of the box may change.
