For anyone who has ever received a piece of jewellery from a loved one, be it a family heirloom, engagement ring (or maybe even one half of a ‘BFF’ heart pendant) knows it holds a significance far more meaningful than it’s actual financial worth.
Jewellery can tell a story and holds the power to become a statement of who we are & what we hold dear.
Yes, jewellery, when it has meaning, is something to treasure indeed.
Which is why I took time to consider (and had much fun deciding) which beautiful charms to pick from the Hersey & Son pendant collection*.I wanted to build the most meaningful necklace possible.
How doesHersey & Son allow you to create jewellery with meaning?
With a range of attractive charm options, it’s really simple to build a meaningful, one-of-a-kind necklace.
Choose from Hersey & Son’s new Zodiac charms, Birthstone charms (with cabochon gemstones), Initial charms, Number charms and Lockets.Pick one or a collection of them to create something very personal and beautiful which you or someone special, will be able to treasure for years to come.
You also have the option to further personalise through engraving on their Zodiac charms & lockets.An extra-special touch!
My thoughts on my Hersey & Son necklace…
I was kindly invited to pick from their new collection of Zodiac charms*. As well as being able to select a Birthstone & Initial charm necklace. I selected a mixture of what reflected me, namely my initial and also the zodiac sign and birthstone of people who mean the world to me.A personal mixture of self-empowerment & holding close what means most.
The sterling silver charm necklace arrived in an attractive presentation box with tissue paper inside – I was thrilled to unwrap my necklace & chosen charms.Helpfully Hersey & Son provided care instructions and a complimentary cleaning cloth to help keep my necklace looking lovely for longer.
As soon as my necklace was on, I felt connected to it.I guess that’s naturally what happens when you own jewellery with meaning attached to it.It’s such a versatile necklace and fits with a large array of outfits.Plus I find it’s perfectly suitable for daily wear as well as night’s out.
With a variety of charms, I can customise the necklace whenever I want.So I can remove charms just to have a one-charm necklace or mix & match as I see fit.Which ultimately makes it highly wearable for a number of occasions.
