Welcome to our new monthly feature: Behind The Birthstone. Each month we'll let you know what these precious and semi-precious stones mean as well as celestial snippets about the Zodiac signs of the season.
The Month of June has three beautiful birthstones to choose from, featuring one-of-a-kind Pearls, milky Moonstone and Alexandrite. We use each of these precious and semi-precious stones in a selection of our handmade jewellery, meaning we have the perfect gift for a friend or family member with a June birthday.
Why Layering Works
Layered necklaces let you tell your story. Each chain, charm, or pendant can carry personal meaning, a memory, or just great design. When worn together, they create a look that feels polished but lived-in—refined but relaxed.
Plus, they offer endless versatility. You can switch up the mood depending on the day, outfit, or season.
Mixing Chain Types Adds Texture
Don’t be afraid to tell your story. Pendants and charms give your necklace layers a personal touch. Whether it’s a zodiac charm, engraved locket, or your birthstone, it becomes more than just an accessory—it’s your look.
Pro tip: Stick to one statement pendant at a time to avoid a cluttered neckline. Use it as your focal point, and let your other pieces support it.
The old rules about matching silver with silver and gold with gold? They’re outdated. Mixing metals adds a modern edge to your look and lets you wear everything you love at once. Just make sure the mix looks intentional: for instance, balance a bold gold piece with a more delicate silver chain. Or use a two-tone pendant to tie everything together.
