Islamic jewellery at Pellington
Pieces that carry a verse of the Quran, the name of God, or the words sabr and shukr, in 18k gold plating, applied by PVD, on 316L stainless steel. Ayat al-Kursi is engraved on the Ayat ul Kursi Halo and Medallion necklaces and the Ayat ul Kursi Cuff Bracelet. The Allah Sunburst and Allah Calligraphy necklaces carry the name in calligraphy, and the Sabr & Shukr Drop Necklace hangs its two words on a Y-shaped chain. None of them is solid gold, and every piece is waterproof.

What is written on each piece?
Ayat al-Kursi, also written Ayatul Kursi, is the Verse of the Throne: verse 255 of Surah Al-Baqarah. It is one of the most recited verses in the Quran, and many carry it as a verse of protection. The Sunburst and Calligraphy pendants carry the name of God as a single word, and the Drop carries sabr and shukr, patience and gratitude, two words usually spoken together.
Engraved, raised or cut through: how is the script made?
Ayat al-Kursi is a long verse, so it is engraved: cut into the metal so the lines sit below the surface and hold shadow. The Sunburst raises its calligraphy above an 18.3 mm face so the lettering casts its own shadow, while the Allah Calligraphy Necklace traces its strokes in zircon, so the calligraphy catches the light. On the Drop the two words are pierced through the metal, the lower one hanging on a 50 mm drop that wants an open neckline to itself.
