White Gold Necklaces

A white gold necklace reads cooler against the skin than yellow gold and gives diamonds a cleaner contrast in their settings. The best white gold is alloyed for its color from the start, not coated with rhodium over a yellower base metal. Every white gold necklace in this collection is solid 14k white gold, alloyed in our Athens workshop with palladium and zinc for a natural cool tone that does not need re-plating.

Most mass-market white gold jewelry is rhodium-plated to whiten the surface. The plating lasts months or a few years and then wears through, exposing a warmer yellowish tone underneath. Our pieces do not use rhodium. The color you see is the alloy itself, all the way through. No re-plating appointments. No color drift over time. The white gold necklace you buy today looks the same in a decade.

The collection covers the full range. For chain styles, see our dainty white gold chains and our layering necklaces. For pendants, browse our pendant necklaces and our circle necklaces.
