Charmed, I'm sure...

Charms and pendants

Charms are the latest thing, and they are no longer limited to dangling from a charm bracelet.  Charms are being worn grouped together or singly on chain necklaces.  They look great.  They make wonderful, thoughtful personal presents.  Most are very affordable. Here are some websites that sell a variety of charms and pendants.

Archive Jewelry sells brass and Swarovski charms.  Pictured is an engraveable brass tag, with a swallow charm, a locket, and Swarovski crystal.  The chain is 20” long.  A great look!  Total for all is $107.

 

Heather Moore Jewelry describes itself as “the original fully personalized charm collection”.  Pictured is a rose gold round charm that can be personalized for $340.  Charms are available in silver - the round charm sells for $145.  Diamond and sapphire charms sell for thousands of dollars. There are many styles, materials and options available. 

 

Stella & Dot has initial charms, birthstone charms, relationship charms, inspiration charms and whimsical charms.  From $19.00.

 

Jennifer Fisher has a good selection of charms and pendants.  We love her anchor, which comes in 14k or 18k gold, 14k white gold or 14k rose gold, for $500 and is 1" x 3". 

 

Charms from Charmed Circle come in sterling silver or 18k gold plate.  We like their Love Letters in crystal quartz, smoky topaz, blue topaz, and more.  $275 each. 

14k gold Helen Ficalora charms in alphabet letters ($125) which can be combined to send a message, and many others.  Chains are $170. (call to order)

She makes the same charms in sterling silver for $55.

  

Urban Outfitters is on board with the charm trend.  They have a good selection.  $20 and up. 

Juicy Couture has a charm I love!  It’s a Gold Love Dial Charm – Truth or Dare?  Spin the wheel!  $94.05.

Emily Elizabeth Jewelry has gold-plated brass and sterling silver  charms and chains.  She offers very good value and lots of choices. Most pendants and necklaces are under $100 for both. 

 

Jennifer Zeuner does monogrammed necklaces in either sterling silver or gold-filled.  You may choose one or three initials in block.  Silver or gold-filled is $176.  The chain is 16”.  She also has “swirly” initial pendant (1 5/8”) on a 16” rope chain in silver or gold vermeil for $242, or in rose, white or yellow 14k gold for $880. 

If you aren’t feeling monogrammish, she has many other pendants to choose from.

 

Jessica Elliot offers many charms and pendants.  They come in sterling silver or vermeil.  Like Jennifer Zeuner’s, charms are incorporated into the chain.  The cut-out flower necklace pictured here is $180.

 

Sonya Renee offers lots of charms - many are small and designed to be worn together. Everything is hand-made in sterling silver, 14k gold-filled and semi-precious stones. She offers monogrammed discs and when paired with a gemstone, it’s a great look!  Each gemstone is $14.00 - pick your birthstone for fun.  One initial on a gold or silver disc is $36 - you can add 3 more initials for an additional charge.  A 16” chain is included but longer lengths are available for an additional charge. 

 

Lulu Frost has salvaged all the brass and bronze room numbers from the old Plaza Hotel and turned them into pendants.  The necklaces start at $300 are quite striking.  Go to lulufrost.com for information about the pieces, and where to buy them.

 

Here’s a look we love: String many charms, even a pocket watch, from a thin solid gold wire necklace. A 10K gold wire necklace, 16" on sale for $39.00 at HSN Or 14K gold solid gold wire necklace for $549.99 at Amazon
