Vanilla Links pendant from Nude Jewellery

Put the words "delicate" and "handmade" next to the word "jewellery" and you've pretty much got my undivided attention at the moment. I will always love statement necklaces and cocktail rings, but right now I cannot get enough of all the dainty little pieces that seem to be so popular. If they're handmade, so much the better. I love the thought of wearing something that's been individually crafted. Right now, my new Vanilla Links pendant from Nude Jewellery is my absolute favourite piece, and I've been wearing it pretty much day and night since I got it.

Nude Jewellery have a boutique in Mayfair in London as well as a vast online selection. (Very vast - it's one of those sites you can lose hours on). They pride themselves on stocking some of the finest contemporary jewellery by UK designers as well as jewellers from all over the world. They also claim to have a passion for unusual pieces and you can definitely see this when you browse the site. From the beautifully simple to the fabulously ornate, there are so many quirky designs that I just haven't seen anywhere else.

The packaging is delightfully different too. My necklace arrived carefully wrapped in tissue paper, inside a white cardboard box, inside this huge silky grey wrap.

The Vanilla Links pendant is handcrafted in silver by Nude's in-house London jewellery designers. It couldn't be simpler - two hammered rings on a fine chain. From the pendant itself down to the fastenings, the quality of the piece is obvious. It's quite a short necklace, so my favourite way to wear it is peeping through an open shirt collar, though it also works very nicely against a high-necked top or dress.

I love the way the rings sometimes sit one inside the other, sometimes side by side. The hammered detail adds an interesting texture that make this piece a joy to both handle and wear. I'm not going to be taking this off any time soon!
