Part of a set — worn together
The Plot · A coffin for the hand, a coffin for the throat.
A small coffin in silver, its lid edged with a single engraved line and a filigree bow tied at the head. A red cabochon sits where a nameplate would go. A funeral for something small, worn at the throat.
The mourning piece. Solid 925 sterling silver, hand-oxidized, chain included, made to order.

Why you can trust it
- Solid 925 sterling silver. The real metal all the way through, not a coating.
- Any detail of this piece can change. The stone, its colour and cut, the metal finish, the size, the engraving, the proportions — because it is cast after you order, nothing here is fixed. Ask for the changes you want before you buy. Change enough and it stops being this design and becomes yours, at no extra cost beyond what the new piece takes to make.
- All metal, no fillers. Solid silver throughout — this piece is set with no stones.
- No plated base metal. Solid sterling all the way through — not silver-coloured brass.
- We tell you how it ages. The dark is an oxidized patina, not a coating — only microns thick. Worn every day it wears brighter along the raised edges while the recesses stay black. That is how oxidized silver ages, and it is not a fault.
- Made to order, and protected. Free US shipping, thirty-day returns, and Etsy buyer protection on every order.
- Wearing it on Halloween? Order by September 23 — it is cast after you order, so that is the last day the making and the post office both fit. Intricate casts take longer; ask us first.
Wearing it
Lament hangs straight and heavy for its size, a small solid case that sits flat on the sternum. The bow softens it just enough. Wear it on a mid-length chain over black, and let it be the only thing at the throat.

Keep dry; polish the raised silver gently and leave the oxidized recesses dark — the finish is meant to deepen with wear.
