This isn't a perfect, symmetrical snowflake. It's more like a starburst, with some arms reaching further than others. The mix of polished gold and tiny stones gives it a lot of texture up close, and it doesn't sit like a flat stamped charm.
A fine, 14-karat gold cable chain holds a starburst-shaped pendant. At its centre, a tight cluster of nine small, round stones sits inside six polished gold petals. From there, six arms radiate outwards at different lengths. The longer arms end in a trio of stones, while the shorter ones are tipped with a single, slightly larger stone.
We make this necklace from solid 14-karat gold, not plated or filled. It’s 58.3% pure gold mixed with other alloys for strength, which means it’s tough enough to resist the dents and scratches of daily wear. Solid gold won't tarnish or have its colour fade over time. It's also a good choice for sensitive skin, as it's less likely to cause a reaction. The stones are all Cubic Zirconia, individually set by hand into tiny prongs to keep them secure.
- Material: 14K solid gold
- Stone: Cubic Zirconia
- Chain: Cable chain
- Sold as a single necklace
You'd choose this necklace if you want something with more detail than a simple solitaire. The mix of different-sized stones and polished gold surfaces catches light in a lot of different ways. It has a bit of complexity without being a large, heavy piece that gets in the way.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the prongs on the Lily Necklace catch on my sweaters or hair?
The prongs are quite small and we finish them to be as smooth as possible, so they are unlikely to catch on most clothing. However, with very delicate knits like cashmere or fine lace, it's always a good idea to be mindful when putting on or taking off the necklace.
Can I shower or sleep while wearing my 14K gold Lily Necklace?
Yes, you can wear your solid 14K gold necklace in the shower. Water won't harm it, but soap and shampoo can build up over time and dull the stones. We recommend taking it off before sleeping to prevent the delicate chain from getting tangled or stretched.
How will the Lily Necklace pendant sit on my collarbone?
The pendant is lightweight and designed to sit flat against the skin. Depending on the chain length you choose, it will typically rest right in the hollow of your throat or just below the collarbone. Because it's not perfectly symmetrical, it has a more organic, less rigid look.
What happens if I receive my Lily Necklace and I don't like it?
You can return the necklace within 30 days of receiving it for a full refund or exchange. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label to make the process easy. The piece just needs to be in its original, unworn condition.
