Pendants & Charms

Since ancient times, jewelry pendants have served not only as decorative accessories but also as meaningful symbols. In many cultures, a pendant was worn as a protective talisman, a sign of family heritage, or a marker of social status. While these meanings have evolved over time, they remain just as relevant today. A modern neck pendant can become a deeply personal symbol — a reminder of an important event, a loved one, or a core life value.

Gold pendants and charms are often chosen as gifts, as they are easy to personalize. Shape, gemstone, and metal color — every detail matters and helps create a piece of jewelry with a truly individual character.

Jewelry Pendants and Charms: What’s the Difference?

In the world of fine jewelry, the terms pendant and charm have distinct meanings, although they are often used interchangeably in everyday language.

1. A pendant is a general term for a piece of jewelry designed to be worn on a chain, cord, or bracelet. It may feature a minimalist design, a decorative form, or no gemstone at all.
2. A charm is a type of pendant that typically serves as the focal point of the piece and often includes a gemstone, enamel, or another decorative element.

In essence, pendants and charms differ primarily in design and their role within an outfit — yet both remain timeless accessories that complement any style.

Types of Pendants in the Tango Collection

In addition to the classic division into women’s, men’s, and children’s jewelry, the Tango catalog also features unisex pendants and charms designed for everyday wear, regardless of personal style. These are minimalist pieces, either without inserts or with small stones, that pair effortlessly with both business attire and casual looks.

Women’s Pendants

Women’s pendants are all about elegance, symbolism, and a wide variety of shapes. The Tango collection includes designs in the form of hearts, flowers, infinity symbols, letters, and abstract shapes. Pendants with gemstones are especially popular, as the stone enhances the natural brilliance of gold and gives the piece a luxurious appearance. Such pendants pair beautifully with delicate chains and become a refined focal point of any look.

Men’s Pendants

Men’s pendants are characterized by restraint and clean design. Most often, these are geometric shapes, symbols of strength or faith, or zodiac signs. They are crafted in gold of various colors, with minimal use of inserts — typically onyx, cubic zirconia, or black enamel. A men’s neck pendant highlights the wearer’s confidence and sense of status.

Children’s Pendants

Children’s pendants are designed with safety and comfort in mind. These are lightweight jewelry pieces with smooth edges, soft shapes, and bright details. Popular choices include symbolic figures, hearts, and angels. For children, not only the design and color matter, but also the quality of the metal and the reliability of the fastening.

How to Choose a Pendant

The key to choosing the perfect pendant is clearly defining your criteria and making sure the piece you select meets them. There are several important aspects to consider:

Choosing the Metal (Gold, gold color, purity)

The first step is selecting the metal. Gold remains the most popular choice thanks to its durability and timeless appeal. The color of gold depends on the alloy:

• Yellow gold is classic and traditional,
• White gold offers a modern, understated look,
• Rose gold feels warm, expressive, and distinctive.

14K gold (585) is considered the most practical option, as it offers an ideal balance between strength and precious metal content.

Gemstone and Decorative Inserts

The insert defines the character of the jewelry. Diamond pendants symbolize luxury and refinement, while semi-precious stones such as topaz, amethyst, or garnet attract with their rich colors and more accessible price point. It’s important to consider the shape of the stone and how it complements the overall design.

In addition to classic gemstones, modern pendants may feature decorative enamel or mixed materials, allowing for unique designs with bold color accents. Pendants with well-cut stones are especially valued, as the cut enhances natural brilliance and depth of color. A carefully chosen insert can visually transform the pendant, making its shape more balanced and harmonious.

Shape and Design

The shape of a pendant carries both aesthetic and symbolic meaning. A circle represents harmony, a heart symbolizes love, while a cross or protective charm is associated with faith and protection. When choosing a shape, consider your personal style and wardrobe.

For everyday wear, it’s best to opt for pendants without overly protruding elements. For special occasions, statement pieces with gemstones or intricate designs work beautifully, drawing attention and elevating the overall look.

How to Style Pendants with Other Jewelry

A harmonious look always starts with balance. Here are a few simple styling tips to keep in mind:

• If the pendant is bold or oversized, the chain should be strong enough to support it visually and physically.
• The metal color should ideally match your earrings or ring for a cohesive look.
• Avoid combining too many statement pieces — let the pendant be the focal point.
• The length of the chain should complement the pendant’s shape: shorter chains highlight the collarbones, while longer ones visually elongate the silhouette.

Thoughtful combinations help create an elegant and well-balanced appearance, whether for everyday wear or special occasions.
