The branch is fixed in place on the chain, so the clasp will always stay at the back of your neck. It’s a small detail, but it means you’re not constantly adjusting it throughout the day. The curve is designed to follow the collarbone.
This necklace is built around a fine 14K gold cable chain. The centrepiece is a small, curved branch with seven distinct leaves. Four of the leaves are polished solid gold, while the other three are replaced by round, brilliant-cut Cubic Zirconia stones. The branch is attached to the chain at both ends, so it sits flat against the skin and won't slide around. The gold has a bright, polished finish.
We make this from 14-karat solid gold, which is 58.3% pure gold mixed with other alloys for strength. This isn't plated or filled, which means the colour won't ever chip or fade away. It's also hypoallergenic, so it won't react with your skin, even with daily wear. The stones are high-grade Cubic Zirconia, which have a clean, bright sparkle that's very close to a diamond's. They're individually set by hand right into the branch for security.

Most necklaces have a pendant that slides on the chain, which lets the clasp swing to the front. This one is different. Because the branch is fixed in place, the necklace stays centred all day. It’s a small thing, but it’s the kind of detail that makes a piece of jewellery truly wearable.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the branch on the Evergreen Branch Necklace flip over while I'm wearing it?
No, the Evergreen Branch Necklace is designed to prevent flipping. The branch is attached to the chain at two points, and its slight curve helps it lay flat against your collarbone. This fixed design ensures the pendant stays facing forward and centred throughout the day.
Can I shower or sleep with my 14K gold Evergreen Branch Necklace on?
Yes, you can wear your solid 14K gold necklace in the shower. Water won't harm it, and it won't tarnish. For sleeping, it's generally safe, but be aware that fine chains can get snagged on bedding or hair, so we usually recommend taking it off.
How does the Evergreen Branch Necklace sit on the collarbone?
The Evergreen Branch Necklace is designed to sit on or just below the collarbone, depending on your neck size and the chain length. Its fixed, curved branch design helps it follow the natural line of your body for a flush, comfortable fit that doesn't move around.
