Point Arena Lighthouse Charm Sterling Silver | California Coastal | Made in USA
Point Arena Lighthouse holds a singular place in California's architectural history: when the original tower was destroyed in the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, engineers rebuilt it as the first lighthouse on the Pacific Coast to use steel-reinforced concrete — a direct response to what the quake had revealed about the coastline's geology. This 3D charm renders that rebuilt tower in solid .925 sterling silver, made in USA.

At 1.8 grams and 7/8" x 1/4", the slender proportions of the tower are faithfully captured. Lost-wax casting — a technique traceable to ancient Egypt and Greece — produces solid sterling with real heft rather than the hollow, fragile construction of mass-produced imports. Progressive hand-polishing brings the surface to a mirror finish.
Lighthouse collectors, California coastal enthusiasts, and maritime history buffs will recognize the significance of Point Arena immediately. Its first-order Fresnel lens, still on display at the station, is among the largest ever manufactured. Add this to a bracelet alongside other coastal or California-themed charms, use it as a pendant, or buy two with sterling ear wires for a matched pair. A jump ring is included and attached.
