Petite — sweet moments of life in one medallion

When cre­at­ing lock­et medal­lions, mod­ern tech­nolo­gies and crafts­man­ship accu­mu­lat­ed over the cen­turies are effec­tive­ly com­bined. They are those won­der­ful pieces of jew­el­ry that cher­ish the most impor­tant and bright­est moments of life, ideas and dreams.

Women and girls of all ages are cho­sen for their mod­ern yet time­less sen­su­al­i­ty com­bined with some intrigue and unsur­passed exclu­siv­i­ty.

What is petit?

This word is of French ori­gin and lit­er­al­ly means “small”, “minia­ture”. This term is often used to refer to any­thing that is small in size. Often referred to as thin women or teenage girls.

In gen­er­al, the word has a clear­ly fem­i­nine nature. There­fore, it is not sur­pris­ing that it migrat­ed to the jew­el­ry sec­tion.

What is petite in jewelry?

Medal­lions, due to their abil­i­ty to tell a wom­an’s unique per­son­al sto­ry, orig­i­nal­ly appeared as mourn­ing dec­o­ra­tions. They were worn as a sign of spir­i­tu­al close­ness with the deceased. Then strands of hair or por­traits of loved ones (lat­er pho­tographs) became sen­ti­men­tal ele­ments in them. The lat­ter do not lose their rel­e­vance in the 21st cen­tu­ry.

Mod­ern jew­el­ry has brought these prod­ucts to a new lev­el. Now the own­ers of the medal­lions have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to store in them not only por­traits of loved ones, but also oth­er inti­mate and dear mem­o­ries, events, dreams. This was made pos­si­ble thanks to minia­ture fig­urines-sym­bols made of gold, sil­ver and pre­cious stones. For their small size, they received the name “Petite”.

Since such pen­dants are incred­i­bly beau­ti­ful and not as per­son­al as a strand of hair or a por­trait, hid­ing them from pry­ing eyes has become irrel­e­vant. There­fore, the lid on the medal­lions, where the fig­ures are placed, began to be made trans­par­ent.

Of course, Pan­do­ra, which spe­cial­izes in charms-sym­bols, could not bypass the petit direc­tion. Her line of jew­el­ry has an entire col­lec­tion ded­i­cat­ed to them PANDORA Petite Mem­o­ries.

The col­lec­tion includes three pieces made of 925 ster­ling sil­ver:

Cher­ish your spe­cial mem­o­ries with this col­lec­tion of jew­el­ry and add minia­ture charms to show­case your unique sto­ry.

Just choose your favorite medal­lion design. It can be a clas­sic round shape, in the form of a heart, a key or a Mick­ey Mouse head. Per­son­al­ize it in end­less ways with Petite Charms that sym­bol­ize what you hold dear. Here you will find flow­ers, bees, hearts, infin­i­ty sym­bols, Mick­ey Mouse, clover, fam­i­ly tree and more.

They can be found in clas­sic sil­ver designs, PANDORA Shine and PANDORA Rose. Fin­ished with cubic zir­co­nia and enam­el.

The trans­par­ent cov­er of the medal­lion is made of glass.

The charm-medal­lion for the bracelet is a round­ed bead with a trans­par­ent cov­er.

Peti­ta charms are pur­chased based on per­son­al tastes and finan­cial capa­bil­i­ties. It is worth remem­ber­ing that elbows are worn in a con­spic­u­ous place and will sure­ly attract the atten­tion of strangers. There­fore, if you do not real­ly want to open up to strangers, do not put too per­son­al char­ac­ters in them.

It is also worth think­ing about the appro­pri­ate com­bi­na­tion of them with your today’s bow. Neu­tral will be a clover leaf, a star, flow­ers, the inscrip­tion “love”. Most of these medal­lions have a rather dis­creet design, so they are per­fect for casu­al style, par­ties with friends, dates, shop­ping and office.

At the same time, the loket filled with petites is a self-suf­fi­cient eye-catch­ing dec­o­ra­tion. There­fore, if you plan to wear more ear­rings, bracelets or rings, it is bet­ter to stop at neu­tral and not bright options.
