Another idea: build your own custom charm necklace or custom charm bracelet with all of your favorite charms!

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!

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

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.

Reviews Summary
Customers say this initial pendant is super dainty and perfect for everyday wear. Many find it layers nicely with other charms, though some note it's smaller than expected. The pendant fits most chains easily, but a few mention it can catch on clothes or slip off.

    Sweet little initial

    It’s small, but with a punch. It reminds me of a cross I had as a child and loved.

    Pleasant surprise as I was concerned that as a small piece it would not make an impression. Not so.

    Thank you

    Perfect

    I got an initial to add to my GLDN necklace after giving birth to my son. I have different pendants for all the children we've welcomed through birth and foster care and each one is such a special reminder of these precious souls! Love everything they make, and the personal touches on each package are so sweet.

    Even more brilliant in person

    I love this charm, I received it as a mother day gift with another necklace, it is beautifully crafted, I love all the small details of how it was packaged and the little note the box - I love everything this company does.
