Questions we get at the counter

Can I get any letter, or only the letters shown on the page?

Any letter. Between them, the two letter menus cover A to Z. Eighteen letters also have a listing of their own. For a letter a menu skips, or a menu letter in white or rose, text the desk before you order.

Which chain goes with an initial pendant, and does one come with it?

Nearly every letter comes alone, to hang on the chain you already wear. The descriptions pair them with a Franco most, then rope and box. Two listings sell the letter on its own chain. Send the desk your chain's width so the bail fits.

How big is a letter pendant, and where does it sit on the chain?

About an inch across is the size men buy most here. It hangs at the low point of the chain, and the chain's length decides where that lands, in the gold chains guide. Past 2 inches, a letter gets heavy.

Are the diamonds on these initial pendants real, natural or lab grown?

Most letters carry diamonds, and where a listing names the origin, natural leads lab grown about five to one. Most leave it unsaid, so ask on the letter you pick, and ask about a certificate. A small group are plain gold.

What does a men's initial pendant weigh in 14K gold?

The middle letter in that gold weighs about 20 grams. A small diamond letter off the menus weighs a gram or a few, and big custom letters run far heavier. Nearly every letter men bought here weighed under 20 grams.

Can I get two letters, a monogram or a name on one pendant?

Yes, a few dozen listings carry two initials, a monogram or a short word. Two letters weigh near twice what one does. Ask the desk whether a build is quoted by the letter or the piece. A full name goes to custom name pendants.

How much does a men's gold initial pendant cost?

The price is on each listing. The gold's grams and karat set part of it, and the diamonds' carats and origin set the rest, with bench time on custom work. For a letter no listing shows, the desk quotes it at 212-872-9692.

Is an initial pendant made to order, and how long does it take?

Many are. A couple dozen listings say made to order, none prints a wait, and the desk quotes yours. Unworn and unaltered, a listed letter has fourteen calendar days to go back. One cut for you may count as made for one buyer, so ask.
