Birthstone May Emerald Initial Necklace in Sterling Silver

The Emerald gemstone got its name from an ancient Persian word that translated to the Greek as Smaragdus, meaning "greenstone". Although most commonly considered green, Emeralds occur in various hues, from yellow-green to blue-green, with the finest being a pure verdant green hue.

According to legend, the Emerald protects against danger and gives the wearer a strong heart. It is perfect gift for your loved one who has the Emerald as their Birthstone.

May's Gemstone Splendor: The Emerald Initial Necklace from London

Immerse yourself in the intricate craftsmanship and profound symbolism of our Birthstone May Emerald Initial Necklace. Crafted in the heart of London with unwavering attention to detail, this necklace is a testament to the passion and dedication that goes into hand-making jewellery that lasts a lifetime.

Each piece, created uniquely upon order, undergoes an elaborate finishing process, elevating its elegance. To ensure authenticity and a hallmark of supreme quality, every necklace bears the distinguished symbols: our revered Maker's Mark, an indication of Traditional Fineness, the Millesimal Fineness stamp vouching for metal purity, the iconic Assay Office's seal, and the Date Letter indicating its year of creation, all verified by the esteemed London Goldsmith's Company Assay Office.

But beyond the craftsmanship lies the heart of the piece: its inspiration. Rooted in the profound emotion of presenting a significant gift, this necklace aims to be a tangible memory. A memory that resonates with love, gratitude, and the joy of unforgettable moments, allowing its wearer to carry these sentiments close to their heart.

The radiant Emerald Initial at its core spans approximately 1.8cm by 1.8cm with a profound depth of 1.3cm. Tailoring to personal preferences, it comes in a range of chain lengths from the delicate 16" to a more statement-making 24". Each necklace is further adorned with a hand-tied Freshwater Pearl on the clasp of the diamond-cut curb chain, a delicate touch that exudes charm.

Our love for gifting transcends the piece itself. Each necklace is presented in an elegant traditional jewellery box, accompanied by a soft suede pouch, ensuring its protection and longevity. A beautifully crafted note card is included to add a personal touch, waiting to bear your heartfelt message. Tying it all together, quite literally, is a sophisticated grosgrain ribbon that wraps the box.

The Birthstone May Emerald Initial Necklace is not just a piece of jewellery; it's a story, a sentiment, and a legacy. Eternally cherished. For those dearest to our hearts. Forever.

All of the Silver and Gold is recycled. 

18ct Yellow Gold : (750 parts of Gold per thousand)

9ct Yellow Gold : (375 parts of Gold per thousand)

Yellow Gold is alloyed with copper and silver to strengthen and give it longevity.

The shade of the Gold depends on the Gold content. Therefore, the 18ct Yellow colour is richer than the paler Yellow Gold.

Sterling Silver: 925 hallmarked Sterling Silver

Gold Vermeil: a layer of 18ct Gold Plate of at least 2.5 microns over the top of Sterling Silver.

Gold Vermeil is a layer of 18ct Gold Plate that will eventually wear away over time.

The speed of this wear is affected by elements such as being exposed to water, heat, chlorine, natural body oils, products and perfumes.

I know it’s tempting to wear your jewellery while swimming, showering or at the gym, but it should be avoided.

And it’s best to put your jewellery on after applying your make-up and lovely scent.
