The Sacred Sol Answers - FAQs
💎 Quality & Design
What makes a Sacred Sol Design lanyard the ideal teacher lanyard?
A teacher lanyard from Sacred Sol Design is a functional accessory designed to carry your ID badge and keys while being a beautiful, jewelry-like piece. We craft our lanyards using a stunning combination of genuine gemstone beads like Agate and Labradorite, along with strong, professional-grade 49-strand beading wire for superior flexibility and resistance to breakage. Each piece features a Heavy-Duty Lobster Clasp for your badge and keys, ensuring it holds up beautifully to the demands of a busy school day.
What makes a Sacred Sol Design lanyard a "jewelry-like lanyard"?
Our pieces are crafted as genuine Handmade Jewelry using professional techniques and materials. We use beautiful, natural Gemstone Jewelry for focal and accent beads—such as Agate, Labradorite, Moonstone, and Purple Aventurine—giving them the look and feel of a fine accessory. It's truly not your ordinary lanyard.
What kind of beading wire is used to ensure maximum flexibility and durability?
We use strong, professional-grade 49-strand beading wire. This premium wire is the gold standard in Jewelry Design, guaranteeing maximum flexibility and superior resistance to breakage, a core feature that defines the quality of our beaded lanyards.
Are the accent beads real gemstones or are they synthetic?
All our focal and accent beads are genuine, earth-made Crystal Jewelry and natural Gemstone Jewelry. We hand-select each stone to ensure you receive a high-quality piece that is as beautiful and grounding as it is functional.
How long should a teacher lanyard be?
The ideal lanyard hang length is ultimately a matter of personal preference, as torso length and chest size can significantly impact where the badge rests. We find that the most popular and comfortable range for professionals is 19 to 21 inches (38 to 42 inches total length).
Every Sacred Sol Design piece is crafted for an optimal hang length and I am happy to customize the length of any lanyard. This length is chosen because it comfortably fits the majority of wearers, allowing your ID or keys to rest at a perfect, accessible spot without being cumbersome, enhancing the look of your jewelry-like lanyard.

🔒 Security, Use, and Care
Will the clasps hold up to constant daily use (e.g., a teacher's busy day)?
Yes. Our lanyards feature a robust Heavy-Duty Lobster Clasp for your ID badge and keys. For safety, many of our designs also include an easy-release magnetic breakaway clasp at the neck. This feature is awesome for professionals, particularly Teacher Lanyard wearers, as it ensures the lanyard will quickly detach if snagged, preventing strain or damage.
What is your repair assurance policy if my lanyard breaks?
We back the quality of our craftsmanship. Should any issues arise from normal wear—including breakage of the 49-strand beading wire—we offer a repair assessment under our Repair Assurance policy. Please visit our Repair Assurance page for instructions on sending your item back to our studio.
How should I care for and clean my gemstone lanyard?
To maintain the natural beauty of your Gemstone Jewelry, simply wipe the beads gently with a soft, dry cloth. Please avoid submerging your lanyard in water or exposing it to harsh chemicals. Following these simple steps ensures your noordinarylanyard lasts for years.
Do you use safe materials for the metal components?
We strive to use components that are high-quality and typically free of nickel and lead, ensuring that your jewelry-like lanyard is comfortable and safe for all-day wear.
