Silver Pendants

A great way to personalise a silver chain is by including a unique silver pendant to mark a special occasion. Pendants come in a variety of shapes, sizes and styles – which is just as well because they’re used for a number of reasons. Silver is a classic, fashionable material for any jewellery – silver pendants are particularly stylish, and popular, thanks largely to Tiffany’s.

Silver pendants are used to show membership of a group, act as a talisman, serve as recognition of achievement or simply to be a small, beautiful work of art. It shouldn’t be a surprise that scores of the world’s leading designers craft gorgeous silver pendants. Names like Frank Gehry and Elsa Peretti have collections of pendants that any woman would be proud to wear.

When shopping for a silver pendant, consider it’s weight, size and makeup – each of these is important. The weight of the pendant makes a difference to the size and construction of the chain it should be worn on. The size of the pendant should be in proportion to the person who will be wearing it so it doesn’t overwhelm the wearer. And, the makeup of the pendant is exceptionally important – particularly if you intend that the recipient wear the pendant frequently. Dangling pendants are gorgeous, but can be dangerous for people who work around equipment and can be fragile in the hands of children.
