Initial Necklace

What do initial necklaces mean?

Initial necklaces are usually designed with a specific person in mind. In most cases, someone will wear initial jewellery with the first letter of their name on it. For instance, some called Hannah might wear an 'H.' However, some people may wear an initial necklace with a letter referring to a loved one or family member.

Additionally, some initial necklaces may have more letters on them to spell out a name, act as a monogram, or refer to two or more different people who are significant to the wearer. For instance, a mother may wear the initials of their children's first names on a necklace.

Are initial necklaces still popular in 2025?

Yes, they are! Initial necklaces, engraved initial necklace styles, and layered initial necklace combinations are all still popular today. Initial jewellery has staying power as other trends move on because it allows the wearer to express individuality and can make a good choice for everyday wear.

These necklaces have a personalised touch but might be inspired by the many celebrities and TV show characters who also wear letter and name necklaces. For instance, Carrie Bradshaw's 'Carrie' necklace is a recognisable part of the character, as is the 'A' necklace that Alexis Rose wears in Schitts Creek.

Are initial necklaces customisable at Camile & Stone?

Yes, at Camile & Stone, we offer unique engravings on our jewellery, so you can have a personalised initial engraved onto one of our pieces. Pieces that are suitable for this kind of engraving include our initial bar necklace styles and our initial pendant styles.

On top of this, you can also combine letters to make unique initial jewellery when you shop with Camile & Stone. If you're unsure whether we can fulfil your request with the products in our initial necklace for her range, then don't hesitate to reach out. Our customer service team will be happy to answer your questions.

What materials are Camile & Stone's initial necklaces made from?

Camile & Stone are proud to offer a wide range of metals in our jewellery collection.

• 18-karat gold vermeil: This has a sterling silver base metal with a thick 18-karat gold coating on the outside. It has all the lustre of gold with a more affordable price tag. Gold vermeil is not to be mistaken for gold-plated jewellery. Vermeil has a much thicker gold layer, making it a more luxurious metal.
• Silver: Those with cooler undertones may prefer silver jewellery.
• Rose Gold: A modern phenomenon, rose gold is a similar hue to bronze but with more pink tones and is a trendy metal now.

Does Camile & Stone offer different font styles for the initials?

Yes, of course! We want to make sure that the initial necklace gift you buy from us is exactly as you want it. We offer a few different engraving fonts, including script, cursive and standard fonts. We can also engrave letters, numbers, special characters, and accents onto your jewellery.

We understand that different fonts may lend themselves more to certain designs. For instance, a vintage initial necklace style would suit script engravings, whereas a minimalist initial necklace might work best with standard fonts.

Remember to check and re-check any engravings you request so that you know they are all spelled correctly!

Does Camile & Stone offer gift wrapping or packaging for initial necklaces?

Yes, we do. If you would like to add gift wrapping to your order, it's effortless. All you need to do is check the gift-wrapping box at the checkout.

Our gift wrapping includes a premium zip-up pouch, branded gift boxes, a written gift card, branded shopping bags, and luxe velvet pouches, perfect for jewellery storage that is safe and secure.

We understand that some people just cannot wrap gifts! This is why we offer this service so that your initial necklace gift can arrive ready to be gifted without any worries on your part.

Are birthstones collection available with initial necklaces?

Unfortunately, we don't currently have specific birthstone initial necklace options, but there are a few things that you can do to combine your initials and your birthstone.

Firstly, you could consider buying an initial choker necklace from us and layering it with one of our birthstone necklaces. This could give you the birthstone and initial combination that you desire, and it will look great. You could even layer in a zodiac sign necklace for added personality.

You could also add a birthstone charm to your initial necklace to create a unique piece of personalised jewellery.

Why does a simple initial pendant necklace make a perfect gift?

A delicate initial necklace can be a really stunning gift for a few reasons.

• Individuality: Firstly, an initial necklace can help the wearer to express their identity and individuality.
• Special gift: An initial necklace is a memorable gift that will have sentimental value for your special someone. You might even consider buying an initial necklace with your initials for your partner or children's names for a mother in your life.
• Stylish: Silver and gold initial necklace styles are perfect for layering necklaces, a trend that is very popular and stylish at present.

Can I order multiple initials on a single necklace?

Yes. At Camile & Stone, the aim is always to give you lots of choices. So, we do offer chain necklace styles where multiple initials can be added.

We have some already created styles, like our mother necklaces. These make really thoughtful gifts for new mothers in your life or as an option for Mother's Day.

We also offer engraved pieces, so if you don't want multiple charms but would still like multiple initials, you can get a number of initials engraved onto one pendant by us. We offer various fonts and can engrave letters, numbers, and special characters for you.

How do I care for my initial necklace?

Caring for initial jewellery will depend on the type of metal and gemstones; however, some general guidance on jewellery cleaning is provided below.

• Always use mild soap and soak the piece for a few minutes.
• Use a soft toothbrush to get into any crevices or settings and dislodge dirt.
• Rinse with clean water and pat dry with a soft cloth.

For special pieces like a diamond initial necklace, you might consider professional cleaning. It is also important to note that while solid gold and silver can be exposed to water, you should avoid exposing jewellery to water and instead clean it with a damp cloth.

Can I return or exchange my initial necklace if I'm not satisfied?

For our initial necklaces with one initial, we can allow returns because they have not been totally customised for you. However, with highly personalised or engraved jewellery, we cannot currently offer returns or exchanges.

As these pieces have been made specifically for you, we cannot resell them if you change your mind. To avoid disappointment, make sure to check and re-check your engraving for any misspellings or mistakes and check that the font and style are correct before you purchase.

Our other jewellery pieces are subject to different exchange and return regulations because they are not personalised.
