The 1" long pendant hanging from Eden's Steps to Freedom Necklace celebrates the steps David took to become free from human trafficking with engravings of the words "HOPE", "WAIT", "RISK", "SEEK", "CALL" and "FREE". This brushed stainless steel necklace comes in 24".
The Steps to Freedom and Find Hope pieces are inspired by David’s story of courage and escape. Each piece demonstrates the steps he took to escape, find refuge at Eden's shelter and eventually return home to his family.
David’s journey started with HOPE which was followed by WAIT, RISK, SEEK, CALL and FREE. David WAITED for the right moment, he took a RISK by jumping out of a car travelling at 60 mph, he SOUGHT refuge in a local Burmese family home, he CALLED, and further support came to set him FREE.

Caring for your Sterling Silver Jewellery
Sterling silver jewellery is marked with a 925 stamp. Polish sterling silver pieces with a jewelry polishing cloth. If more attention is needed, immerse in a solution of warm water and mild dishwashing liquid and gently hand wash. A soft toothbrush can also be used for more abrasive cleaning when needed. Thoroughly rinse and completely dry the silver before storing, as moisture contributes to tarnishing. Never clean your jewelry in bleach. If the jewelry contains gemstones or pearls, do not submerge the entire piece into the water. Instead, use a cotton swab with mild dishwashing liquid to wash only the silver.
