A personal touch from the Baybayin Collection — minimalist, meaningful, and made just for you. Each design honours our indigenous script, weaving your story into jewellery that bridges past and present.

Product Details

❀ Hypoallergenic - Nickel-Free

❀ Waterproof and Tarnish-Resistant

❀ 18K Gold PVD Coated (Learn More) or Natural Stainless Steel

❀ Your chosen Araw necklace will be custom engraved with your selected Baybayin word, name, or phrase, using our exclusive Mga Sulat ng Puso font.

❀ Choose from a variety of chain styles and charm sizes, each with its own character limit (see options above). 

❀ Each engraving is thoughtfully sized and placed to suit your necklace, making every piece uniquely yours. 

❀ Wear your story in script—let your jewellery carry a memory, a wish, or a word close to your heart.

How to Request Your Engraving

Write your Baybayin text (or the word you wish to translate) in the Order Notes at checkout.

❀ Baybayin is phonetic—write your word as it sounds, breaking it down into syllables (e.g., BA-R-KA-DA for “barkada” [4 characters]).

❀ For special requests or to send a reference image, email ukit@akingsinta.co.uk with your order number.

❀ If ordering more than one necklace, please clarify which engraving goes with each piece.

Baybayin Writing Rules (Quick Guide)

Baybayin does not use the letters “C,” “F,” “J,” “Q,” “V,” “X,” or “Z”—substitute with the closest Filipino sound.

❀ Each symbol represents a syllable (consonant + vowel: e.g., “ba,” “ka,” “da”). By default, each character ends with “a.”

❀ Add a kudlit (dot/mark) above for “e/i” or below for “o/u.”

❀ To cancel the vowel sound (write a final consonant), use a pamudpod or a krus.

Vowel remover mark will be chosen based on engraving space and design, but to specifically request either:

For pamudpod, write a comma after the syllable (e.g., BA-R,-KA-DA).

❀ For krus, write a plus sign after the syllable (e.g., BA-R+-KA-DA).

Two-Sided Engravings

For “Back to Back” (two-sided) engraving, the default is the same engraving on both sides.

❀ If you’d like different engravings on each side, specify clearly in Order Notes or by email (e.g., “Front: Lakas / Back: Ganda”).

Important Notes

Custom engraving adds 1 extra working day to order processing.

❀ Engraved items are custom-made and non-refundable.

Product Measurements

  • The engraving will fit to the maximum available space on your selected piece.
  • The default chain length will be 50cm with a 5cm extension chain for all options (18-20in).

Care Instructions

❀ Think of it as the "cherry on top” and put it on last. Avoid direct contact with chemicals like make-up, perfumes, lotions, hairspray and antibacterial soaps.

❀ After pool, ocean or chlorine exposure, simply rinse with fresh water to prevent residue buildup and gently pat dry to keep the gold glowing.

❀ Clean with a soft cloth using gentle soap and warm water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning tools.

❀ Remove your jewellery before bed and store separately in boxes or bags provided.

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary, and this was such a meaningful gift. We both love the simple and minimalist design of the Araw. I paired the pendant with a necklace from Letti and also bought a second one so we could have a matching set, which we wore on our anniversary and now wear daily. My wife and I call each other ‘Kapuso’, so we loved reading about your husband calling you ‘Aking Sinta’. Thank you for using your heart and your talent to create something so special to us, because of our heritage, and even more so, because it’s a beautiful reminder of our story, of all we’ve walked through and overcome together, and the life we’re both so grateful God’s allowed us to continue walking through together. My wife truly is my Kapuso. And getting to love and be loved by her is my greatest joy, honor, and privilege.

This was a gift for one of the Filipino nurses I work with. I wanted to buy something so she could remember her homeland for Christmas. Arrived promptly and I’m happy with it. It came in a pouch that doesn’t really show how lovely it looks which is a shame. I would have paid more if it came in a presentation box/ jewellery box as it would have looked extra special. But I have found one at home and put it in there. Maybe the seller could look at this option of presentation going forward . It would make all the difference

Such a beautiful pendant! I used my own chain and it looks great. The item took longer than expected to get here but that’s understandable given that it came from a different country. Would recommend to anybody wanting a modern cultural piece
