There’s nothing quite like wearing a piece of jewelry that symbolizes something special in your life. At Shane Co., all of our jewelry provides a way for you to express yourself. Take it one step further with a personalized charm necklace.
Charms have a rich history of offering a personal touch to your jewelry collection. Charm bracelets are especially popular, but we like to put our own twist on the concept with customizable charm necklaces. You can personalize your necklace with specific charms, holding meaningful mementos near and dear to your heart. Learn more about how to create a charm necklace at Shane Co. below.
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.
Letter Charms
Letter charms are a popular choice, as they’re simple yet personal. Choose a charm based on your own initials, or choose an initial for a loved one. Our diamond-accent letter charms come in various metal types and go with any style.
Zodiac Charms
Another great add-on for your personalized charm necklace is a zodiac charm. We have charms in two styles for every zodiac sign. A charm with your symbol reflects not only the time you were born, but the characteristics that are associated with your astrological sign.
Birthstone Charms
Another personal charm to consider is a birthstone charm. Find your gemstone to add another symbolic layer of meaning to your charm necklace. Not sure what your birthstone is? Learn which stone represents the month you were born by visiting our birthstone jewelry selection. You can also select a gemstone that means something to you, whether it’s your birthstone or not.
Symbolic Charms
If you’re religious or spiritual, certain symbolic charms serve as a daily reminder of your faith. We have cross charms as well as other symbolic charms that hold various meanings. Choose the emblem that best represents your life and personal beliefs.
Other Charms
We’ve covered the most popular charm types, but there are even more available to you! We have men’s charms and mother-and-child charms, to name a couple of other styles to choose from. Shop all charms for other styles we didn’t mention.
Building a custom charm necklace isn’t the only way to create a jewelry style that’s one of a kind. To explore all of our personalization options, head over to ShaneCo.com and start building. You can also book a virtual or in-store appointment to get some help from one of our expert jewelry consultants.
