Product Insights
The Étoile Chain from Twenty Compass is a $29.95 CAD 14k gold-plated steel star pendant that offers an adjustable 17.5-inch to 19.75-inch drop via a 2-inch extender, suiting crew necks, V-necks, and layered stacks with its substantial 1.18-inch star, and it undercuts a comparable Sarah & Sebastian solid-gold Gossamer by over $1,400, but the tradeoff is that the plating can wear off after a single use, exposing the hypoallergenic steel base, so it is best positioned not as a fine-jewelry keepsake but as a low-commitment, replaceable daily piece that requires removing before showers, workouts, and applying perfume or lotion to preserve the finish.
Verified claims
- Luxury price gap
- The $29.95 CAD Étoile Chain undercuts Sarah & Sebastian's US$1,430 Gossamer.
- Material grade
- The Étoile is 14k gold-plated steel, while Sarah & Sebastian's Gossamer is 18k solid gold with diamonds.
- Daily wear
- Gold-plated stainless steel resists water, sweat, and tarnish, but care guidance says remove it before showers and workouts.
- Size and presence
- One buyer describes the 1.18-inch star pendant as substantial enough to wear alone or layered.
- Plating durability
- Buyers report the 14k gold plating can wear off after a single use, exposing stainless steel below.
- Plating care
- Apply perfume/lotion before wearing; wipe dry with a microfiber and store separately to protect the gold finish.
- Plating wear
- Community reviewers report the gold plating wearing off after a single use.
- Care routine
- Perfume, lotion, and hairspray before wear, plus wiping with a dry microfiber cloth after, preserves gold color longer.
- Wear economics
- Étoile is a $29.95 plated piece; Sarah & Sebastian's Gossamer is 18k solid gold that retains value.
- Hypoallergenic
- Hypoallergenic steel base prevents skin irritation even if plating wears.
- Solid gold alternative
- Sarah & Sebastian's 18k solid gold Gossamer keeps its gold finish, unlike this plated chain.
- Length range
- 17.5-inch base plus a 2-inch extender adjusts the drop from collarbone to just below (up to 19.75 in).
- Neckline versatility
- Short extender settings clear crew necks; longer settings follow V-necks and stagger layers.
- Gift sizing
- The extender removes the length guess: the wearer hooks the clasp where the pendant falls best.
- Adjustability
- Buyer reports the extender's very small links make length changes fiddly.
- Stacking rules
- Buyers report the 1.18-inch star works alone or in a stack; the extender staggers it so chains don't knot.
- Gift fit
- Gift givers can skip the length guess; the wearer picks her own drop on the extender.
- Fine-jewelry positioning
- Bulgari's Fiorever is the right buy for a gem-set keepsake; the Étoile suits replaceable daily wear.
- Water resistance
- Tolerates incidental water, but the maker's care guide says to remove it before showering, swimming, or exercising
- Price comparison
- At $29.95 CAD, it's the low-commitment alternative to Sarah & Sebastian's $1,430 Gossamer star pendant
- Value
- Cost per wear is high: community reviewers report the gold plating wearing off after a single use.
- Care requirements
- Brand care page advises removing the necklace before showering, swimming, or exercise.

a beautiful necklace
I bought this as a gift and I can't wait to give it to her. It looks more expensive than it was. The starfish is substantial enough to wear alone or it could be layered. It is gorgeous. The only negative is that it is adjustable but the links in the chain are so small it is a bit tricky

User reports poor quality and customer service
Really bad quality of gold. Their plated product goes off after the first time I wear them. I bought two different rings, both really cheap. Really disappointed from their products and the customer services. Even if they admit that their products have a default, they would not want to refund me. They wanted me to return the product and give me a store credit. Which is all on the customer to paid for their poor quality product and shipping. Would not recommend to anyone. Be careful, it has been time consuming to try to deal with them
