Instead of a single, large stone, this pendant uses a cluster of tiny ones set together. This gives it a different kind of sparkle — less of a single flash and more of a constant, subtle shimmer as it moves with you.
A fine, 14K gold cable chain holds a single, small pendant. The pendant itself is a pointed oval, like a leaf, hanging vertically from a simple polished bail. Its entire surface is paved with about a dozen tiny, round cubic zirconia stones, set closely together. The gold setting is minimal, just enough to hold the stones, which lets them catch the light from all angles. The whole piece has a bright, polished finish.
We make this necklace from solid 14-karat gold, not plated or filled. That's 58.3% pure gold mixed with stronger alloys, which means the delicate chain is durable enough for daily wear. It also means the gold colour won't fade or tarnish over time. Solid gold is generally safe for sensitive skin. The stones are high-grade cubic zirconia, precision-cut to look nearly identical to diamonds, giving you a bright sparkle without the same cost or worry.

This is the kind of necklace you can put on and forget you're wearing. It's very lightweight and sits flat against the skin, so it won't get in the way. It's small enough to wear every day, but the cluster of stones gives it just enough presence to wear on its own.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the small cubic zirconia stones in the Drop Leaf Necklace fall out with normal wear?
It's unlikely for the stones to fall out. Each cubic zirconia is secured by tiny prongs in a pavé setting, which is a very secure method. We cover any manufacturing defects, including loose stones, under our two-year warranty, so just let us know if you have any problems.
Can I shower or sleep while wearing my 14K gold Drop Leaf Necklace?
Yes, you can. Solid 14K gold won't be damaged by water, and the necklace is small enough to be comfortable while sleeping. Just be aware that soaps and lotions can build up behind the stones over time, dulling their sparkle. We recommend cleaning it periodically with a soft brush and mild soap.
How does the Drop Leaf pendant sit on the neck? Does it flip over?
The pendant is designed to lie flat against your collarbone. Its simple bail and balanced weight help keep it from flipping over during the day. The standard chain length usually places the pendant just below the hollow of the throat, making it visible with most necklines.
