Forged from authentic silver recovered from the Nuestra Señora de Atocha (1622), this miniature sword pendant is a wearable tribute to the armed galleons that once guarded Spain's treasure fleets. The original Atocha silver has been carefully recast into this elegant curved blade form — carrying the weight of over 350 years on the ocean floor off the Florida Keys. The hammered texture and organic imperfections give each piece a one-of-a-kind character, echoing the hand-forged craftsmanship of the colonial era. Finished with a sturdy bail, it's ready to wear on any chain. Specs: ~1.95" long | ~4.36g | .925 Sterling Silver (sourced from authentic Atocha salvage) Each pendant ships with documentation verifying the Atocha silver provenance.
