Solid Gold Initial Necklace

Your initial, kept simple. A solid gold initial necklace with your letter engraved by hand, understated and made to be worn every day.

An engraved solid gold initial necklace, made to your letter

The quiet one. Your chosen letter engraved into solid gold, clean and understated, the kind of piece you put on and never think about taking off. A real gold initial necklace made personal, solid throughout, never plated, lovely on its own or layered.

How Your Bespoke Initial Necklace Is Designed

Once your order is placed, our design team will begin creating your chosen letter, ready to be engraved into solid gold.

Each design is created individually, with careful attention paid to the spacing, balance and proportions of the letter so the finished necklace feels beautifully considered from end to end.

We’ll then send you a digital design preview to review and approve, giving you the opportunity to see exactly how your initial will look before your necklace is made.

Once approved, your design is passed to our atelier to be crafted especially for you.

Prefer to see your design before you order? Our Custom Design Preview lets you have it created first for £49, credited in full against your necklace.

Solid gold, 9ct and 18ct

Made in solid 9ct or 18ct gold, in yellow, white or rose. The 9ct is the toughest for everyday, the 18ct the richest. Every solid gold initial necklace is made and hallmarked here in the UK, solid throughout, never plated. In any letter from A to Z, on a fine, adjustable chain.

How to style it

Made for layering. Wear your initial alone for barely-there everyday, or stack it with your other fine chains at different lengths. Understated, but solid gold, so live in it.
