This isn't a machine-made bead. Each pearl has its own slightly off-round shape, a soft oval that proves it's natural. The rose gold cap is shaped to fit its specific curve, so it sits just right.
You're looking at a single, natural pearl charm. The pearl itself is a creamy white with a soft lustre, and it's not a perfect sphere — it's slightly oblong. It's held at the top by a small, cup-like cap made of polished 14k rose gold. An unadorned, oval-shaped bail connects to the cap. The whole piece is small and self-contained, with light catching the curve of the pearl and the high polish of the gold.
We use solid 14k rose gold, not plated or filled. It’s 58.3% pure gold, with copper and a little silver mixed in to get that warm, pinkish colour and add strength. This means it's durable enough for a charm that gets worn a lot, and it won’t ever tarnish or turn your skin green. The pearl is a freshwater cultured pearl, so each one has its own unique shape and surface. It's drilled and securely set, not just glued on.

This is the kind of charm you add to a chain and just leave on. It's small enough that it won't get in your way, and the simple design works with pretty much any other jewellery you're wearing. It's a classic for a reason—it just works.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Pearl Ball Charm get scratched easily since it's a natural material?
Pearls are softer than metal, so they can scratch if they hit rough surfaces. The charm is small, which helps protect it, but we recommend storing it separately from other jewellery. A soft pouch works well. Minor surface marks are normal with wear over time.
Can I shower or sleep with the 14k gold Pearl Ball Charm on?
Yes, you can. The 14k solid gold won't be damaged by water. However, constant exposure to soaps and lotions can dull the pearl's lustre over time. It's best to take it off before showering to keep the pearl looking its best for years.
How does the Pearl Ball Charm sit on a necklace chain?
The charm is lightweight and has a simple bail, so it will hang straight and move freely on most fine chains. Because the pearl is slightly bottom-heavy, it orients itself naturally. The bail is big enough for chains up to about 2mm thick.
