Product Insights
The Le 31 Crest Pendant Necklace, a Simons-exclusive Canadian-designed piece, is available in stock at $29—Le 31's most common price tier where choice is by design not cost. The necklace features a 21-inch adjustable chain (19-23 inches) for collarbone or below wear, topped with a symbol-heavy pendant (cross, dice, pegasus) from a rotating emblematic series positioning the crest as a fashion micro-trend rather than a classic. At $29, it undercuts custom crests by 5x yet costs more than basic stainless steel, straddling mass-market and custom alternatives. A key tradeoff: the pendant's nickel content may cause skin reactions for allergy sufferers, as warned.

Does the 'Golden Yellow' variant have a gold-colored finish, and if so, is it plated or anodized nickel?, meaning the nickel base can become exposed as the plating wears. While nickel's oxide layer self-heals, that property does not reduce its allergenicity.
