Lace, but not the soft kind.

A lace band that sits high and tight at the throat, with teardrop charms that catch the light when you turn your head — which you will, slowly, at exactly the wrong moment.

This is the piece that makes an ordinary black dress a decision. Wear it with nothing else at the neck. It doesn't share.

In black, or in burgundy if you'd rather it read as a bruise than a statement.

The details

  • Adjustable — 13 inches at the throat, with a 3.9 inch extension chain
  • Glass, zinc alloy and polyester lace
  • One size, two colorways
  • Ships free from our international warehouse — allow 5–10 business days for delivery

Care

Keep it dry and take it off before exercise — sweat corrodes the alloy and dulls the finish. Away from perfume, stored flat. Lace remembers everything.

Before you buy

Will it turn my skin green?

Depends what's underneath the gold. Plating over stainless or titanium steel won't - steel doesn't react with sweat that way. Plating over copper or alloy can, because copper oxidizes against skin and the mark it leaves is green. It's harmless and it washes off. Check the material line on this page: it says which one this piece is.

Will it tarnish?

Sterling silver will, eventually - that's silver reacting with sulfur in the air, and it goes black rather than green. A polishing cloth takes it off. Platinum-plated silver resists it for much longer. Gold plating doesn't tarnish; it wears, which is a different problem with the same look.

Is it waterproof?

Water-resistant, not waterproof. Showers, swimming and hot tubs shorten the life of any plated piece - chlorine and salt are the worst of it. Take it off first and you'll double how long it looks new.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Stainless steel, titanium steel and 925 sterling silver are the safest bets here. Plated alloy is the one to avoid if nickel is your problem. If you react to cheap earrings, stay in the steel and silver collections.

How do I make it last?

Last on, first off - after perfume, lotion and hairspray, before the shower and the gym. Wipe it with a soft cloth after wearing. Store it dry and separate, in the pouch it came in. That's most of it.
