Graduation cap - Charm

A graduation cap in black enamel and gold, tassel hanging to the right. Flat, bold, instantly recognisable. The kind of charm you wear after — not to prove anything, but to remember everything it took. The perfect gift for a convocation.

Comes with a connector. Wear it on a necklace, watch, bracelet, bag or other accessories. 

The lore: "The mortarboard has been the symbol of academic achievement since medieval European universities, where scholars wore flat-topped caps as part of clerical dress — education then being almost entirely the domain of the church. When universities began admitting women in the late 19th century, the cap became quietly radical. To wear it was to claim a space that had been historically denied. Today over 200 million women worldwide hold university degrees. The tassel flip at convocation is one of the few rituals left that marks a before and after with a single gesture."
