The Origin Africa necklace is an Africa-shaped pendant necklace crafted in gold vermeil and zircons. Designed to rest lightly on the skin, it is both statement and whisper — a symbol of lineage carried with elegance.

The Story Behind This Piece

The Origin Africa necklace is more than jewelry — it is a bold statement of belonging to the motherland, yet a delicate piece of jewelry you will want to incorporate in your everyday jewelry stack. A gold vermeil Africa-shaped pendant highlighted with zircons all over for the perfect shine. This design was born from Johanna’s desire to wear a piece of jewelry that is a testament of her identity.

It is a distinct symbol of belonging to the motherland, a subtle tribute to origin, movement, and enduring grace.

Material & Care

Our necklace is crafted in 18k gold vermeil, a thick layer of 18k solid gold on 925 sterling silver. Our vermeil is 2.5 microns of gold, which is 5 times thicker than regular gold plating, meaning it will last longer. You get the look and feel of gold jewelry at an affordable price. It is embellished with zircon gemstones.

Gold vermeil can tarnish over time, especially with exposure to moisture and sulfur. With a little care, its shine is easy to restore.

  • Store it dry. Keep your pieces in a dry place with the anti-tarnish strip included in your order.
  • Wipe regularly. Every piece is treated with an anti-tarnish finish. A quick wipe with a soft, dry cloth helps stop tarnish before it sets in.
  • Polish gently. Polishing cloths can be abrasive, so use light pressure and don’t over-polish.
  • Avoid steam and ultrasonic cleaners. They can damage vermeil.

Styling Notes

This necklace is your everyday piece, the one you never have to take off because it goes with everything. It is a statement piece that can easily be worn by itself but dainty enough that it can also be layered with your other favourite necklaces.
