If you place your order before 4pm on a weekday, it will always get shipped the same day.

All our St Christophers that are above the legal hallmarking weight will contain a UK hallmark. This limit is 7.78g for sterling silver and 1g for 9ct gold. You may also see other marks such as .925, or .375. These all relate to the metal purity - they aren't a hall mark as such, but simply show the purity of the metal. '375' is found on some 9ct Gold items and refers to '37.5% pure gold' - the definition of 9ct Gold. '925' is found on on some sterling silver pieces and refers to '92.5% pure silver' - the definition of sterling silver.

You may see a few = different symbols in our hallmarks. These are: the sponsor’s mark, millesimal fineness mark and the assay office mark. 'JB', the sponsors mark, refers to us - our parent company Jewellerybox ltd.
The fineness mark, is likely either '375' or '925' for our St Christophers, as all are either 9ct gold, or sterling silver. Finally, the assay office mark - this refers to the Assay Office that hallmarked the item. We use the Edinburgh assay office, which has a stamp of a three-towered castle. There are Assay offices in Sheffield, Birmingham and London which all have different stamps.

Yes - logo engraving is possible on many styles. Get in touch with the artwork for a quote and confirmation of compatibility. We are also able to send a proof prior to engraving to ensure you're happy with how it looks.

9ct gold St Christophers can be worn in the shower - soaps and shampoos won't harm them. Sterling silver St Christophers are best removed before showering, as soaps and shampoos can accelerate tarnishing. For both metals, avoid chlorinated pools and salt water, as harsh chemicals can dull the finish and affect the metal over time.

We recommend:

• 16"-18" for a higher neckline look
• 18"-20" for a mid-chest length
• 20"-24" for a longer, statement look
  

No. Engraving is done with a laser into the metal, so it will not wash off or fade. It will give a deep, clear engraving that will last. Normal care will keep it looking crisp for years.

St Christopher is the patron saint of travellers. Traditionally, wearing a St Christopher is believed to offer protection during journeys and safe passage. Many people gift them to loved ones embarking on trips, gap years, or new life chapters. For more information, read our blog post "What does a St Christopher Symbolise?"
