Beautiful necklace, seems like quality workmanship. However, it took an extremely long time to ship. If you need it within two weeks for a gift like I did, it didn’t make it. Close to a month from ordering to arrival.

Antique engraving of the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul: merchants, shoppers and a rider on horseback beneath long painted stone arches

Made in the Grand Bazaar, Istanbul

Centuries of Skill. In Every Piece.

Not a trend. Not a shortcut.

Your piece is made by goldsmiths in Istanbul's Grand Bazaar, where gold has been shaped, set and polished since 1461, and you can see it in the details: clean lines, an even polish, nothing rough against your skin.

Color That Holds Up

Real Gold. Real Silver. Nothing Cheap Underneath.

3 microns of 18K gold.
15 times standard plating.

Most gold-tone jewelry is a thin coat over base metal. Ours starts with solid 925 sterling silver, then adds 3 microns of real 18K gold, about 15 times the 0.2 microns of standard plating, so the warm color holds up to everyday wear. The silver base is gentle on sensitive skin.

Shopping on a budget? Our gold-plated option uses 0.5 microns of gold over brass. Want gold all the way through? Select designs also come in solid 14K.

925 sterling silver.
15x the gold of standard plating.
2-year warranty on vermeil.

Questions, answered

Everything people ask before they buy this necklace.

Is this initial necklace real gold?

It depends on the metal you pick, and only one of the three is solid gold. 14K Solid Gold is gold all the way through, not a layer over another metal, so there is no base metal underneath to wear through. 18K Gold Vermeil is a thick 3.0-micron layer of real 18K gold over solid 925 sterling silver: the colour and warmth of gold, made for daily wear. Gold Plated is 0.5 microns of 18K gold over brass, the lowest price of the three. Choosing White Gold/Silver? On vermeil that is the sterling itself, on plated a silver-tone finish, and on 14K white gold. Warranty: 1 year on Gold Plated, 2 years on vermeil and 14K.

Whose initial do you wear on an initial necklace?

Your own, most often — and that is the modern way to wear it. The older convention was to wear a partner's or a child's letter; now a single initial on a fine chain reads as a signature. Mothers stack one letter per child on the same chain. Couples wear each other's. A bridesmaid set is the bride's initial for everyone. There is no rule, only the person you want to be reminded of when you touch it.

What is different about 14K Solid Gold?

It is the same design, made of gold instead of finished in it. 14K means 58.5% pure gold, alloyed for strength — the standard for fine jewelry you wear every day. It is solid gold all the way through, not a layer over another metal: no base metal underneath, nothing to wear through. That is why it costs more — with vermeil and plated, the gold is a surface layer measured in microns; with 14K, the gold is the metal the piece is made of. The gold does not tarnish and does not mind the shower or sleep, and it is the one that gets handed down. 2-year warranty. Every 14K piece is made to order, so it takes 4 business days longer than vermeil or plated.

Can I get two initials on one necklace?

On our two-initial and multiple-letter designs, yes — they hold two or more letters side by side: yours and theirs, or the first letters of two children's names. On the pavé designs each letter is outlined in stones; on the tag and sideways designs the letters are cut or engraved. A design made for a single initial holds just the one. Tell us the letters in the order you want them read, left to right.

What is the difference between an initial necklace and a monogram necklace?

An initial necklace carries a single letter, or a couple of separate ones; a monogram interlocks two or three initials into one design, traditionally with the surname initial larger in the middle. Monograms read formal and preppy; initials read minimal. If you want something that goes under a T-shirt and over a blazer equally well, the single initial wins.

Can I shower or sleep in my necklace?

It depends on the metal. 14K Solid Gold: yes to both — it is solid gold all the way through and does not tarnish, so it can stay on in the shower, in bed and every day in between. The one exception is a piece with pearls or soft natural stones: those come off before water whatever the metal. 18K Gold Vermeil: sleep in it, yes; shower, pool and gym, no. Gold Plated: off before the shower, the pool and the gym, and ideally at night too — water, sweat and perfume are what wear plating down fastest. With vermeil or plated, jewelry goes on last, after lotion and perfume have dried, and back in its anti-tarnish pouch when it comes off. Clean the metal with a soft dry cloth; never use jewelry dip or anything abrasive on vermeil or plated, which strips the finish.

What is my birthstone?

January garnet, February amethyst, March aquamarine, April diamond (ours is a clear CZ), May emerald, June pearl or alexandrite, July ruby, August peridot, September sapphire, October opal or pink tourmaline, November citrine or topaz, December turquoise, tanzanite or blue zircon. That is the modern list our colours follow: each birthstone on this piece is cubic zirconia in that month's colour. Choose the month when you order; on the two-stone and family designs, give us the months in the order you want them set.

Are the birthstones real gemstones?

They are colour-matched cubic zirconia, cut and set the way gemstones are, chosen because the colour is exact for each month and stays that way. We say so plainly: natural stones this small vary a lot in colour, and these do not. Each one is bezel- or prong-set in the metal you choose — Gold Plated, 18K Gold Vermeil or 14K Solid Gold — and covered by that metal's warranty: 1 year on Gold Plated, 2 years on vermeil and solid gold.

How long does a personalized necklace take to arrive?

Most personalized orders arrive within 5 to 9 business days in the US: 3 to 5 business days for us to make it, then free USPS shipping that takes 2 to 4 days. In 14K Solid Gold, allow 4 more business days, so 9 to 13 in all. Your name, stone or engraving is part of the piece, not a sticker on top: on vermeil and plated it is added before the finish goes on, and on 14K it is in the solid gold itself. You get a tracking number the moment it ships. Because it is made for you, spelling and size cannot change once we start making it, so take one more look at the personalization before you pay. We ship worldwide; international delivery is 5 to 14 business days depending on the country, and 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.
