Real materials — never brass.

Built on a solid 925 sterling silver core. Choose sterling silver, or 14K gold vermeil — a thick layer of real 14K gold over that same sterling silver, not the cheap brass plating that turns skin green. Hypoallergenic and comfortable for everyday wear. (Solid 14K gold — coming soon.)

How to personalize: In the personalization box, write the name like this:

Name: Harper

Every name is made in the Old English lettering shown in the photos. Prefer a different look? Add a font number from the font chart, e.g. Name: Harper — Font 4. Type the name with a capital first letter, then choose color, length and chain style. Please double-check spelling before ordering.

Choose your chain: Cable (delicate and classic), Figaro (Italian-inspired link), Box (sleek and sturdy), Curb (bold, flat links — shown in the photos) or Paperclip (modern and trend-forward). Each chain has its own fixed price. Curb pairs best with the bold blackletter look; 16" or 18" sits nicely at the collarbone.

Frequently asked questions

What is Old English lettering?
Also called blackletter or gothic script, it's the bold, angular lettering with dramatic capitals shown in the photos.

Do I need to choose a font?
No — every order is made in Old English unless you add a different font number from the font chart.

How many letters can I have?
About 3–10 letters look best. Blackletter is wide, so longer names are scaled slightly to stay balanced.

Can I use a nickname or a word?
Yes — nicknames, initials or short words like "Mama" or "Babe" all work.

Do you have softer name styles?
Yes — see our Swirl Name Necklace for a bold script, or our Signature Name Necklace for an autograph-style flourish.

What is gold vermeil, and is it better than gold-plated?
Gold vermeil is a thick layer of real 14K gold over solid 925 sterling silver. Gold-plated jewelry usually has a much thinner layer over brass or other base metals, so vermeil lasts longer and is kinder to sensitive skin.

How long does delivery take?
Each necklace is made to order in 1–3 business days, then ships in 2–5 business days within the US. Express shipping is available.
