💙 Golden. Luxurious. Deeply Personal.

The Gold Heart Charm Bead is a beautifully substantial memorial piece finished in a rich 18ct yellow gold PVD coating — warm, lustrous, and built to last. A chunky, polished heart-shaped bead features a smooth round resin well (10mm internal / 11.5mm external) set into the top face, with a 5.5mm horizontal hole running through the centre — designed to thread onto a bracelet, cord, or chain of your choice.

Crafted from hypoallergenic stainless steel with a Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) 18ct gold finish — significantly more durable and longer-lasting than traditional gold electroplating, and resistant to tarnishing, fading, and everyday wear.

  • ❤️ Heart-shaped bead — chunky, polished, and beautifully tactile
  • Round resin well — 10mm internal / 11.5mm external, smooth flush finish
  • 🕳️ 5.5mm threading hole — fits most standard bracelets, cords, and chains
  • 🌈 Custom resin inclusion — ashes, hair, pet fur, or flowers
  • 🛡️ 1-year guarantee — we're happy to help with any problems

🔍 What is PVD Gold?

PVD stands for Physical Vapour Deposition — a process that bonds a highly durable 18ct gold coating directly onto stainless steel at a molecular level. It is significantly more durable and much longer lasting than traditional gold electroplating, making it an excellent choice for everyday jewellery that needs to stand the test of time.
