The Story Behind This Piece

The best heirloom in the family isn’t locked in a safe—it is a vanilla-stained 3×5 index card in the recipe box, written in Mom’s or Grandma’s cursive handwriting with “a pinch of this” and “bake until golden.”

Designed by founder Mia Vellamere and laser-cut in our Salado, Texas studio, The Mom’s Recipe Card Pendant miniaturizes that cherished index card in sturdy 1.3 mm (16-gauge) jeweler’s bronze with 0.4 mm gold-on-gold laser-etched ruled lines and script. Presented on a custom-engraved blonde maple wood card inside a linen gift box.

“The Mom's Recipe Card Pendant has real 1.3 mm weight—not thin foil.”

Ordered The Mom's Recipe Card Pendant from the Words & Phrases collection with a custom note on the 3.0" blonde maple card. The 10.0 mm Dime-scale proportion of The Mom's Recipe Card Pendant sits right at the collarbone with smooth 8-hour ceramic-tumbled edges.

“The engraved maple card with The Mom's Recipe Card Pendant made her cry.”

Upgraded The Mom's Recipe Card Pendant to the necklace + matching The Mom's Recipe Card Pendant bracelet set (+$30). Shipped from Salado in 4 days and the 2.5 micron 14k gold over Palladium on The Mom's Recipe Card Pendant is completely gentle on sensitive skin.
