14K Gold Beetle Necklace

Signature Edition | Solid 14K Gold & Precious Gemstones

Bold, structured, and full of character, this curated edition of our Pocket Beetle is a modern talisman brought to life in our studio. Designed with a soft, hand-brushed silhouette accented by sleek, polished details, it creates a subtle play of light that celebrates the wonder of nature's tiny, living sculptures.

The dimensional, fluted wings, head, and body are hand-set with custom-paired gemstones in two distinct colorways. Choose between a rich multi-colored palette of Australian Sapphires, or a serene, tonal blue combination of Montana and Australian Sapphires. Mimicking the soft iridescence of a real forest artifact, this piece brings a quiet, artistic edge to your daily wardrobe.

Details & Specifications

  • The Design: Sculptural beetle pendant featuring a soft-brushed silhouette with high-polish accents and dimensional fluted wings.

  • The Gemstones (Beetle 1 - Multi-Blue & Green Australian Sapphire): Features a dark denim blue head, a forest green body, and bright blue Australian Sapphire wings (celebrated for their rich color saturation and brilliant sparkle).

  • The Gemstones (Beetle 2 - Australian and Montana Blue Sapphire): Features light blue Australian Sapphire head and body, paired with sky-to-teal blue Montana Sapphire wings (prized for their rare, ethereal, calm blue tones).

  • The Materials: Solid 14K Gold (100% hypoallergenic, tarnish-proof, and built for a lifetime of wear).

  • Fit & Scale: Suspended from an 18-inch solid 14K gold chain with built-in adjustment loops at 16 and 17 inches.

  • Comfort: Lightweight, low-profile design with a smooth back for comfortable daily wear.

Why We Love It & How to Style: The contrast between the brushed main body and the gleam of polished details highlights every curve of the metal. Whether you choose the deep multi-colored Australian sapphire arrangement or the soft Montana Sapphire blue combination, the precise color-mapping across the head, body, and wings gives this piece a living, organic feel. Style Tip: Let it take center stage against a dark knit sweater or crisp button-down shirt during the day, or pair it with a shorter, fine 14K gold chain to build a rich, textured stack.

Care Tip from the Studio: To keep your solid gold glowing and gemstones sparkling, clean gently with a soft cloth or a soft-bristled brush using warm water and mild soap. Due to the intricate multi-stone channel settings across the wings and body, we recommend removing your necklace prior to sleeping, swimming, or heavy activity.
