In this blog post, our jewellery designer Charlotte provides design inspiration for different necklaces with sterling silver or gold-plated sterling silver jewellery parts. The different jewellery designs follow current trends with organic and natural shapes, colours and materials.
The small links and pendants in the necklaces are designed with different motifs that point towards the mythical, holistic and occult. This makes it possible for you to design your own jewellery based on your own spiritual feelings and emotions. You can also combine gemstones and semi-precious stones that have special meaning for you and your zodiac sign.
Dive into our beautiful jewellery universe where you can combine your favourite motifs in pendants and links in everything from earrings, necklaces and bracelets! The journey starts below.
