A Dearling initial necklace being hand-finished by a jeweller

Made by hand, in our atelier

Made with you, not just for you.

The things you love enough to wear around your neck. A name, a date, the initials that matter, what you believe in. We make each one by hand, so you choose it all: the letters, symbols and numbers, and your colours. Made to be worn every day and made to last: 18K gold-plated over stainless steel, water-resistant, and it won't tarnish, fade or rust. Put it on, take it off, change it whenever you want.

Handcrafted to order in our atelier, checked by hand, and refunded if it arrives faulty or not as ordered.

    The founder

    From Melissa

    I've never wanted a tattoo. But I always loved what they stand for: keeping someone you love close, always. So I made the thing I wished existed.

    I wear 'Gigi' every day. Gigi is my grandma's nickname, and this keeps her with me, without the needle and without the forever.

    That's Dearling: what matters most, worn every single day.
