The stones on this star are pavé-set, held in place by tiny beads of gold. Up close, it looks like a textured, sparkling surface rather than individual gems. It's a detail that makes the whole piece catch the light as you move.
A thin, 14-karat gold cable chain holds a small, five-pointed star pendant. The entire face of the star is filled with tiny, round-cut zircons set tightly together. A slim, polished gold border outlines the shape of the star. The points are slightly rounded, not sharp. The pendant hangs from a simple, fixed ring bail that's part of the star itself, allowing it to lie flat.
We make this from solid 14-karat gold, which means it’s 58.3% pure gold alloyed for durability. It’s not plated, so the colour will never rub off or tarnish, even with daily wear. This purity of gold is generally safe for people with sensitive skin. The stones are high-quality zircons, which are hand-set to sit flush against the gold. This secures the stones and prevents the pendant from snagging on your clothing. The piece comes with a two-year warranty that covers our work.
- Material: 14K Solid Gold
- Stone: Zircon
- Sold As: Single Pendant with Chain
This pendant is quite small and sits very flat against the collarbone. The points of the star are softened and rounded, so they don’t poke or catch on knit sweaters. It’s a piece you can put on and forget you’re wearing, which isn't true for all pendants.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the small zircons in my gold star pendant fall out easily?
No, the zircons should not fall out with normal wear. They are pavé-set, which means they're secured by small beads of gold that are part of the pendant's structure. This method holds them very tightly. We cover any issues with our setting work under our two-year warranty.
Can I shower or sleep while wearing the 14k gold star pendant?
Yes, you can. Solid 14k gold doesn't tarnish or get damaged by water, and the zircons are secure. While it's generally safe to sleep in, be mindful that the fine chain could get tangled. We recommend taking it off before any intense physical activity.
How does the Diamond Star Pendant sit on the neckline?
The pendant is designed to lie flat against your skin, just below the collarbone, on its standard 16- or 18-inch chain. Because the bail is integrated and the back is flat, it doesn't tend to flip over or twist around as you go about your day.
What happens if I want to return the star pendant?
You can return the pendant for any reason within 30 days of receiving it. Just send an email to returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll reply with a prepaid shipping label and instructions. The piece must be in its original condition for a full refund.
How long will it take for my pendant to ship to the US for free?
Free shipping on qualifying orders to the US and Canada generally takes between 5 and 15 business days to arrive. Orders to the UK and EU take about the same amount of time. You'll receive a tracking number as soon as it leaves our studio in Coquitlam.
