Oval Medallion – Vacuum-Plated Stainless Steel | Kingswell

The Oval Medallion from Kingswell is a statement pendant of genuine spiritual and aesthetic weight, featuring a detailed relief engraving of the Virgin of Guadalupe set within a 45 mm × 28 mm oval form and suspended from a 60 cm classic rope chain. Constructed in vacuum-plated stainless steel — available in radiant gold and cool-toned silver finishes — this medallion is engineered for lasting durability and tarnish resistance, making it equally viable as an everyday piece and a meaningful occasion accessory. The heavyweight rope chain balances the pendant with a commanding presence that rewards both solo wearing and layered styling.

Why choose this medallion?

• Detailed Relief Engraving: The intricate embossed figure of the Virgin of Guadalupe is rendered with precision on the oval face, creating a piece with genuine artistic and symbolic depth.
• Vacuum-Plated Finish: The gold and silver finishes are applied via vacuum plating for superior adhesion and durability far beyond standard electroplating, resisting chip, fade, and tarnish in daily wear conditions.
• Classic Rope Chain Construction: The 60 cm rope chain provides a secure, substantial base that complements the pendant's scale and allows versatile neckline layering with thinner chains.
• Dual Finish Availability: Gold and silver options allow the wearer to match the medallion to their existing jewellery palette or use it as an anchoring piece for a multi-tone curated stack.

Styling & Fit

1. Solo Statement: Wear the medallion as the sole necklace over a plain white or black crew-neck tee, allowing the oval face to sit at mid-chest as the unchallenged focal point of the upper body.
2. Layered Stack: Combine with one or two thinner flat-chain necklaces of varying length to create a layered jewellery edit; the heavier rope chain anchors the stack and prevents tangle.
3. Outfit Integration: Wear slightly visible above the collar of an open-button linen or Oxford shirt for a refined-heritage necklace styling that references timeless elegance without ostentation.

Care & Maintenance

• Wipe the chain and pendant with a soft, lint-free polishing cloth after each wear to remove skin oils and moisture that can accelerate surface wear on plated finishes.
• Store in a drawstring jewellery pouch or separated compartment to prevent the rope chain from tangling with other pieces and to protect the engraved pendant face from surface contact.
• Remove before swimming, showering, or contact sports; prolonged water exposure, even on waterproof-grade plated finishes, reduces long-term durability of the vacuum coating.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the chain length and is it adjustable?
  The rope chain measures 60 cm, placing the pendant at mid-chest on most builds. An extension clasp allows adjustment to approximately 65 cm for a lower-hanging position.
• Is the pendant heavy or lightweight?
  At 45 mm height, the stainless steel pendant has perceptible weight that confirms quality but is not heavy enough to cause discomfort during all-day wear.
• Does the gold finish match yellow or rose gold jewellery?
  The vacuum-plated gold finish reads as a warm yellow gold, harmonising best with yellow gold and brass-tone jewellery in a curated stack.
• Is this an officially licensed religious article?
