The necklace arrived broken. I messaged the seller 11/4/25 and 11/10/2025 to get a replacement. I basically got answers back that were automated and something like oh we will look into this. Here it is 11/14/2025 still no updates. I’ve asked for my money back we will see what happens next.

It is beautiful. I love the way it looks on. I am giving 5 stars for how beautiful it is, however, I may have confused this item with another similar item in that I thought this was gold-filled, not gold-plated. At this price, I thought it would be gold-filled. I like to wear my necklaces 24/7 so I usually only buy gold-filled items.

Very nice necklace. Kinda wish the chain was a little bit thicker. It’s very dainty. Shipping was fast

It’s a beautiful dainty necklace, good quality, the only thing I didn’t really like was their vermeil was a darker yellow than I expected. For me personally I like a paler yellow gold, not something that is too yellow, but other than the color it is a beautiful necklace

Update:
Store reached out and is working on a solution.

Wanted to love this necklace but the “gold” is really yellow and looks so cheap. The quality in the pictures is not the same as the one I received. Looks like something out of Temu.

Questions, answered

Everything people ask before they buy this necklace.

What does wearing a cross necklace mean?

For most women who wear one, it means faith — a daily, visible reminder of belief, worn close to the heart. For others it is heritage: a grandmother's faith, a christening gift, a family that prayed. A small plain cross reads as devotion; a pavé or CZ cross reads as celebration, the one for weddings and Easter. Worn every day, it stops being a statement and becomes part of you, which is what most wearers want.

What does a sideways cross necklace mean?

Officially, nothing different from an upright cross — the sideways cross began as a design choice for bracelets and lariats, where the cross lies along the chain. People have since given it meanings: that Jesus laid the cross down after the resurrection, that faith should be carried rather than displayed, or simply that it reads as jewelry first and symbol second. All three are fine answers. It is the cross for women who want to wear their faith quietly.

Is this necklace real gold?

Yes — it is 18K gold vermeil: a thick layer of real 18K gold bonded over solid 925 sterling silver. Vermeil is an FTC-defined standard, not a marketing word, and ours uses a gold layer at least five times thicker than standard plating. Under it is sterling silver, which is hypoallergenic and worth something on its own. You can also choose the Prestige Gold option (the same 18K gold over a brass core) if you want the look for less and wear it less often. Every vermeil piece is covered by our 2-year warranty.

Is it OK to wear a cross necklace if I'm not religious?

Yes. Nothing in any scripture forbids it, and the cross has been worn as an emblem of hope, protection and remembrance for centuries by people whose faith was complicated. What the devout ask is that it be worn with respect — not as a costume. If you wear it because it was your mother's, or because it means something to you that you cannot quite name, you are in good company.

What is a cross necklace that won't tarnish?

One with a real gold layer over a noble metal — which is what 18K gold vermeil is: thick 18K gold over solid sterling silver. It is tarnish-resistant for years with normal care (off before showers and swimming, on after perfume). Cheap crosses tarnish because they are brass under a hair-thin plating. If you want a cross you can truly never take off — the shower, the sea, the gym — choose a stainless steel piece; solid gold is the other answer, at a different price.

Can I shower or sleep in my gold vermeil necklace?

Sleep in it, yes. Shower in it, no. Water, sweat, perfume and hairspray are what age gold vermeil fastest, so the rule is simple: jewelry goes on last and comes off before the shower, the pool or the gym. Put it on after lotion and perfume have dried. When it is off, keep it in the pouch it came in — the pouch is anti-tarnish, not decoration. To clean it, a soft dry cloth; never jewelry dip or anything abrasive, which strips the gold. Treated this way, vermeil keeps its colour for years, which is exactly why we can put a 2-year warranty behind it.

What does a Star of David necklace mean, and can non-Jews wear it?

The six-pointed star is the emblem of Jewish identity — two triangles interlocked, read variously as the union of heaven and earth, God and humanity, or the six directions with God at the centre. Jews wear it as heritage, faith and solidarity. Non-Jews wearing it is not forbidden, but it is a Jewish symbol, and it is best worn in connection with that community — a partner's faith, a family's history, an act of support — rather than as a shape.

Is a cross necklace a good baptism, confirmation or first communion gift?

It is the traditional one, and for a reason — a small gold cross on a fine chain is the first piece of real jewelry many girls own, and the one they keep. Choose the smallest cross for a child (14 or 16 inches), a plain or CZ cross for a confirmation, and a pendant-sized cross for an adult. It arrives in our gift box with a suede pouch, so a godparent's work is done.

How fast does this necklace ship?

Ready-to-ship pieces leave our Miami studio within 24 hours on business days, with free standard USPS shipping on every US order — typically 2 to 4 business days door to door. Expedited shipping is available at checkout for ready-to-ship items. You get a tracking number by email when it is on its way, and it arrives in our signature gift box with a suede pouch, so if it is a gift you are already done. We ship worldwide; international delivery runs 5 to 14 business days depending on the destination, and any customs duties are the buyer's.

What length necklace should I get?

If you are unsure, choose 18 inches — it sits just below the collarbone and works on almost everyone and with almost every neckline. 16 inches sits at the collarbone (the most popular length for dainty pendants and for layering as the top chain). 14 inches is a choker fit. 20 inches drops a few inches lower and is the right choice over a crew neck or as the bottom layer in a stack. This piece comes in 14, 16, 18 and 20 inches. If you are between lengths, go longer — a chain can always sit a little lower, and if a chain you already own comes up short, our 1, 2 and 3 inch extenders fix that in one clip.
