Chains to Choose From

If you want to pick out your own unique charms and add to a chain, we recommend starting with our Paperclip Chain with Charm Ring in 14k white gold, 14k yellow gold, or 14k rose gold, or our Yellow Gold Rope Chain with Charm Ring. With these designs, you can easily add charms to the charm ring.

Other chains, like paperclip chains or box chains, may work with charms as pendants as well. You can even get different chain types and mix and match between them. Another option is to find a pendant you like and add charms to the existing design. You don’t need to worry about clasping on the charms yourself; all you have to do is pick out your charms and our team will build the necklace for you.

Charms to Consider

Once you know what necklace you’re working with, it’s time to pick out your charms! You can choose symbolic charms or something that simply catches your eye. This necklace is a way to create something completely your own, so there aren’t any rules.
