The seven little stones on this necklace aren't fixed in place. They hang from the gold arc, which means they're always in quiet motion. As you move, they shift and catch the light, creating a subtle, flickering sparkle just above the collarbone.
This is a fine, 14K gold cable chain with a curved pendant at its centre. The pendant isn't a simple bar; it’s a row of tiny, polished gold beads that form an arc. Seven round, brilliant-cut cubic zirconia stones dangle from this arc, each secured by three prongs. The whole piece has a bright, polished finish that catches the light from every angle.
The entire piece is solid 14K gold, not plated or filled. That's 58.3% pure gold blended with other metals for strength. This means it’s durable enough for a delicate chain, and the deep gold colour is there to stay—it won't fade or tarnish. It's also nickel-free, which makes it a safe bet if you have sensitive skin. The stones are top-grade cubic zirconia, which are nearly as hard as sapphires and cut for a sparkle that's very close to a diamond's.

People choose this necklace when they want something more detailed than a simple solitaire but still want it to feel light and delicate. The arc is shaped to follow the natural curve of your collarbone, and the dangling stones add a little movement you don't get from a fixed pendant.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the cubic zirconia in the Starlight Arc necklace get cloudy over time?
No, the cubic zirconia stones won't get cloudy or discoloured on their own. CZ is a stable, non-porous material. Any dullness you might see is just surface buildup from lotions, oils, or soap. A quick clean with a soft brush and warm, soapy water will restore their sparkle.
Can I wear my 14K gold necklace in the shower or while swimming?
Yes, you can wear your 14K gold necklace in the shower. Solid gold doesn't react to water. We do suggest taking it off before getting in a chlorinated pool or hot tub, though. Harsh chemicals can, over a long time, affect the metal's finish and the integrity of the stone settings.
How will the Starlight Arc Gold Necklace sit on my neck?
This necklace is designed with a standard length (usually 16 to 18 inches) to let the pendant rest right on the collarbone. The curved bar is just wide enough to create a small, defined arc that follows your body's natural line, rather than hanging in a deep V-shape.
What happens if I want to return the Starlight Arc necklace?
You can return the necklace within 30 days of receiving it for a full refund. Just send an email to us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll provide a prepaid shipping label. We just ask that the jewellery is returned in its original, unworn condition.
