Petite Star Necklace in 14K Gold

A petite solid 14K gold star pendant on an adjustable cable chain. The smaller scale is for layering, for daily wear that does not announce itself.

The piece

• Metal: 14K solid gold (Yellow, White, or Rose).
• Pendant: a small five-point star, hand-finished with a polished face. Smaller than the standard Star Necklace.
• Chain: included, 16 to 18 inch adjustable cable chain.
• Hand-finished in the USA, made to order.

The symbol

The five-point star is the oldest celestial symbol still in continuous use, appearing across cultures from Polynesian navigation to Pythagorean geometry to Sufi, Christian, and indigenous traditions. It has been long associated with guidance, hope, and aspiration, and with the act of looking up. A petite scale reads as a private marker rather than a public statement, the symbol kept close.

About the goldwork

14K gold is an alloy of 58.5 percent pure gold with copper, silver, and trace metals that give it strength and color. Solid 14K, as in this petite pendant, is the same gold throughout, not plated or filled, so the color does not wear off or fade. The smaller scale uses correspondingly less metal, which is reflected in the price. The piece is curated by a certified gemologist.

Care and wear

14K gold is durable for daily wear. Remove before chlorinated pools to preserve the rhodium finish on white gold. Clean with mild soap and warm water.
