Maybe she lit candles every Friday night, or maybe she didn't, but she made sure you knew where you came from. Now it is your turn to give something back.
This star has the engraved, slightly vintage look of jewelry from another generation, in gold over solid sterling silver. It is small enough for every day and warm enough to feel like family. On her, it will look like it has always been there.
You gave me my roots. This star is a small thank-you, to wear close to your heart.

About this piece
This gold-plated Star of David necklace has an engraved Magen David with a vintage look, in gold over 925 sterling silver. It has the warm, worn-in feel of a piece that has been in the family for years.
What it means
Magen David (מגן דוד) means shield of David, the Hebrew name for the six-pointed star. It has marked Jewish prayer books, synagogues and homes for hundreds of years. Worn close, it says who you are and who you come from.
Size and materials
- Metal: 925 sterling silver, stamped 925
- Finish: gold plating
- Pendant: 20 × 12 mm (about 0.8 × 0.5 in), with the bail
- Chain: 18 in (45 cm)
The star is about the size of a fingertip, and the 18 in chain lets it rest at or just below the collarbone.
Who it is for
A gift for your mother or your grandmother, for a birthday, Mother's Day or Hanukkah. It suits a woman who loves the look of gold and wants solid silver underneath. It is also a gentle gift for an aunt who keeps the family together.
The verse that goes with it: “The LORD is my strength and my shield.” (Psalm 28:7)
Care: Take it off to swim, shower or work out to keep the gold bright. Wipe with a soft cloth and store it dry.

Quick answers
Is it real silver?
Yes. Solid 925 sterling silver under the gold finish.
Will the gold wear off?
Plating lasts longest when the piece comes off for swimming, showers and the gym. The silver underneath never changes.
How big is the pendant?
20 × 12 mm (about 0.8 × 0.5 in). One photo shows it worn at its real size.
When will it arrive?
Ships in 1 to 3 business days and arrives in 7 to 15 business days, free and tracked anywhere in the US.
How it is worn
At the collarbone, close to the heart.
We show every pendant worn at its true size, because a 12 mm star and a 30 mm medallion are two very different gifts.
The exact chain length is on this page, with the extender if there is one: 16 inches sits at the base of the neck, 18 inches at the collarbone.
Chosen for what it means. Worn every day.
