Sterling Silver
Sterling Silver
Ease of care: 4/5

Solid, precious metal that lasts forever. It darkens with time, but can be polished up. Oils from your skin help prevent silver tarnish... so wear it often!

Vermeil (ver - may)
Vermeil (ver - may)
Ease of care: 5/5

More premium than traditional gold plating, vermeil is an extra thick layer of real gold over solid sterling silver. We use 14k or 18k gold depending on the piece.

10k Solid Gold
10k Solid Gold
Ease of care: 5/5

More durable, scratch-resistant and affordable than its 14k counterpart, 10k solid gold offers a softer, subtler tone—ideal for those who prefer a less intense yellow.

Want even more details about materials? Check this out.

  1. Find a tool to use (string, dental floss, headphone cord, measuring tape if you have it).
  2. Find the length by wrapping it around your neck and marking it (for pendants, imagine the jewelry lower, for suspended, it should be in line).
  3. Check the length against a ruler or lay it out flat and measure with a phone app.

Alternatively: Measure an existing necklace end to end with a ruler (most accurate) or a phone app (great if you don't have a ruler handy).

    Dainty Serif Initial Necklace Sterling Silver / O / 17-19″
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Perfect Initial Necklace!

    I chose my son’s initial and love it - it’s subtle but still noticeable, and is easy to layer with other necklaces. It’s well-made and still looks brand new even when wearing every day.

    Adorable necklace

    This petite necklace is beautiful, elegant and understated. Since both my daughter‘s name and mine starts with E, it’s the perfect piece to add to my collection.
