Saint Melangell is the Patron Saint of Small Animals & the natural Environment, 2 of our favourite things in life!
She got her ‘name’ when Melangell, the daughter of an Irish king, fled to a beautiful spot at the head of the Tanat Valley in Wales to live to avoid being married off by her father. She lived a peaceful, solitary life in the valley until the Prince of Powys went hunting there. A frightened hare took refuge under Melangell’s cloak to escape the hunter and the Prince’s dogs were instantly subdued.
The Prince was so impressed with her connection & kindness to small animals that he decided to give her the entire valley to create a sanctuary for all the small animals. Ever since, the location of Pennant Melangell has been a place of pilgrimage, & Melangell remains the Patron Saint of hares, rabbits, small animals, & the natural environment.
What a connection, what a lady!
Her special day is celebrated on May 27 each year.

For all of our Pendants, you have the option of choosing 18”, 20” or 23” necklace for no extra cost.
To Clarify, our 18” chain necklace is made from our fine chain, and the 20” and 23” length chains made from our 'everyday chain’. These are technically the same ‘curb’ chain design, just slightly heavier in weight for the longer lengths.
We also have a range of adjustable ‘textured’ chains such as our Rope Chain, Washington Paperclip Chain, Pearl Chain, Minimalist Figari Chain (The list goes on…) available in various lengths which you can check out here.
We suggest getting a piece of string or a measuring tape and pop it around the back of your neck to measure exactly where you would like the pendant to sit on your body. For a rough guide, (as we all have different & equally amazing bodies), the 23” chain sits around or just above your nipple line, and the 16” chain sits at your top collarbone.
We are big fans of layering necklaces & we're pretty sure you are too!
All of our chains are adjustable in length by 2 inches to make sure you can style your layers to perfection and mix them up with other pieces in your jewellery wardrobe.
JEWELRY MAKING PROCESS
Our jewelry is thoughtfully crafted using sustainable materials and ethical practices, ensuring both beauty and a positive impact on the planet.
DESIGN
Every piece begins with a thoughtful design, often inspired by nature & travel.
Luna & Rose Founder Rosie, spends hours sketching her thoughts & ideas to bring her unique jewelry concepts to life. This is a process that is constantly 'in progress' as she doesnt focus on traditional seasons of fashion.
WAX CARVING
Using traditional wax carving techniques, our talented Wax-smiths carve Rosie's 2D designs into 3D wax forms. This is a fascinating process that can take weeks in itself to perfect the shapes & intricate details of the hand-drawn designs.
Made is our head Wax carver who we have been working with for over 7 years!
SILVERSMITHS
Once the wax form has been finalised & set into a master mould, our skilled Goldsmiths & Silversmiths handcraft each piece with precision, refining & polishing the solid metal to create timeless, high-quality jewelry.
Depending on the style & Metal, our production process is done in Bali & New Zealand.
