Butterfly Necklace with Initial

Necklace Length Guide
Choosing the right necklace length can make all the difference to how your jewellery sits and feels. Our visual guide shows the four most popular lengths on an average neckline so you can easily see where each one falls:
-
14" – Choker Length
Sits closely around the base of the neck. Perfect for a snug, elegant fit or for layering with longer pieces. -
16" – Classic Short Necklace
Falls just below the collarbone on most people. A timeless everyday length and ideal for small pendants. -
18" – Standard Pendant Length
Rests on the upper chest. This is our most popular and versatile length for gifting, flattering most necklines. -
20" – Longer, Relaxed Length
Sits a little lower on the chest for an effortlessly elegant look. Great for creating a layered style or adding extra movement.
Tip: Everyone’s proportions are a little different. If you're choosing a gift, 18" is the safest all-round option—beautiful on its own and easy to layer with other pieces.

The Design
An open butterfly outline with the wearer's initial set at the centre — light, dainty, and quietly personal. The high-shine finish catches the light as you move, and the size (25x19mm) is visible enough to mean something without ever feeling heavy.
Butterfly Symbolism
Across cultures, the butterfly is one of the most enduring symbols of transformation, rebirth, freedom and hope. The journey from caterpillar to butterfly is often used to mark personal change — recovery, growth, the courage to start again, the quiet pride of becoming who you were always going to be.
It's the gift you give for the moment that matters:
- A graduation — a new chapter she's worked years for
- A new job, new home, new city — the start of something
- Recovery — from illness, grief, heartbreak, or a hard year
- Becoming a mother — for new mums or expectant mothers, a quiet acknowledgement of the change
- A meaningful birthday — 18, 21, 30, 40 — any milestone that marks a new phase
- Bridesmaids — each carrying her initial as part of the bridal party
How It Works
- Choose your finish — 18K gold plated, silver or 18K rose gold plated
- Enter the initial to be engraved at the centre of the butterfly
- Add to basket — we engrave to order in our Chester studio
Made to Order
Each necklace is engraved to order in our Chester studio. Our designers go straight to your order as soon as it has been placed, so we can't guarantee changes within an hour of ordering — please double-check spelling before checkout. Because each piece is personalised, we're unable to accept returns or exchanges on customised pieces unless there's a fault on our end. If something isn't right, contact us straight away and we'll put it right.
Care
Hypoallergenic, water and tarnish-resistant — safe for daily wear including showers and exercise. Wipe gently with a soft cloth after wear and avoid prolonged contact with perfume, lotion and chlorinated water to keep both the engraving and the finish at their best for years.
