Like a beachcombing treasure, this golden sand dollar charm looks like it just washed ashore. The round asymmetrical charm is a miniature replica of the flattened, disk-like sand dollar. It is crafted of 14k yellow gold with a satin finish and diamond-cut accents. A textured surface mimics the sand dollars rough, sun-bleached covering where five oval holes and five pores lay petal-like in the center. These openings are shiny diamond cuts like those on the sand dollars edge. The charm hangs from a slide, which is a loop that fits a chain or a satin ribbon. (A satin finish is semi-glossy and minimally reflective, and a diamond cut creates flat diamond shapes with faceted edges for extra bright shine.) While sand dollars are seashore treasures, they also have a Christian religious connotation. According to legend, the sand dollars five holes signify Christs crucifix wounds and its center petals represent an Easter lily or the Star of Bethlehem. For symbolism or just for fun, sand dollar charm is a clever ornament in 14k yellow gold.
