| Hi Mike
You are a designer at heart aren't you? I like pattye's sugestion, but if you want a pendant with the letters, I'd interview a few silversmiths. There are several who have their own shops in Tucson and will do custom work, so I imagine LA would be even better.
In Tucson, I use an upscale pawnshop that sells estate jewelry in front and does repairs for other stores in their enormous workshop with several artisans hunched over jeweler benches with their big googles on, in back.
Go thru the yellow pages for big estate jewelry -ie "pawnshops" places that advertise doing repairs and call them first. They will execute any idea you have- such as the style of the letters and the level of 3-dimensionality you want (ie raised letters) for a decent price because they have no pretensions- I have found some designers who have propietery shops selling only their own wares charge far higher prices.
