High-quality fashion jewelry necklaces

Make statements: necklace pendants as eye-catchers

Statement necklaces usually come with a large, expressive pendant. True eye-catchers that turn a black turtleneck sweater into a designer piece. There is one problem, however, and you may be familiar with it: the more fascinating the pendant, the heavier it is. Most necklaces made of metal or with stones noticeably pull on the neck and can even cause tension. What a shame when a beloved piece of jewelry is never worn because of this, isn't it? We break with this rule, because style should never have a negative impact on comfort. That is why we have created necklaces for women that play with voluminous shapes but are in no way restrictive or heavy. Unconventional materials set visual highlights, and opulent designs feel feather-light on the skin.

Whether you are rushing from one meeting to the next on a busy office day, chatting with your girlfriends about anything and everything in a coffee house or want to dance at an elegant evening event: your Gretchen women's necklace gently follows every movement – like a weightless companion. At the same time, it is a fashion statement that is noticed immediately. 

Women's necklaces: metals for an elegant finish

A women's necklace is worn prominently above the décolleté – which is why it naturally calls for excellent materials. The basis of our delicate pendants is therefore always nickel-free brass. The metal offers shape, stability, durability and skin compatibility. To round off the design perfectly, we rely on special finishes that underline the character of each collection. If you love the classic warm shine of gold, our organic collection is exactly right for you. We set the richly colored leather parchment in elements made of natural, brushed brass. This creates a matte, soft shimmer that brings an artisanal contrast to the bright leather elements. In the Vlum line, too, we rely on glamorous luxury: here we refine with 24-carat real gold, which gives a luxurious finish. For lovers of a cool, silver-colored look, we offer a special highlight among the necklaces for women in our Vlum collection: instead of conventional silver, we use brass metal elements coated with high-quality, hypoallergenic rhodium. Why? This rare and precious platinum metal offers you an unbeatable advantage, because unlike classic silver it does not oxidize or tarnish black. This means your necklace keeps its brilliant, flawless shine permanently – without any tedious polishing. 

From head to hands – your signature look

A necklace for women is undoubtedly a breathtaking statement in itself. But of course it only unfolds its true magic in interplay with more: namely our entire jewelry collection. The fascinating play with architectural shapes, intense colors and our design philosophy flows seamlessly from the necklaces into our rings and earrings. When a voluminous necklace for women shimmers on your décolleté and the matching earrings peek out from under your hair, gently framing your face with every movement, the look is perfect. Since we use the same materials for all jewelry categories, the pieces can be combined effortlessly. Get creative and create your own signature look.

And one more thing: jewelry is not actually our original art. Handbags are. That is why you will also find our design DNA in our various bag models; each bag is a piece in its own right. In addition to jewelry and many other accessories, discover a handbag with us that will become your new everyday companion. From the briefcase for everyday office life to the clutch for dinner in the evening to the designer shoulder bag for a shopping trip with your best friend: at Gretchen you will always find the right designer piece. You can always rely on quality, masterful craftsmanship and an excellent variety of materials with us. Create your look. Show your character. Live your style.
