Review: Vanilla Links Silver Pendant from Nikki Galloway

I love learning about new artists and designers so when Nikki Galloway from Nude Jewellery got in touch asking if I would like to review of the pieces from her Vanilla Links collection I was happy to agree.

The Vanilla Links Silver Pendant* features two loops of different sizes ( 17mm and 14mm) which have been lightly hammered to create texture and  creates a pleasant light reflecting effect which is almost otherworldly. The loops sit on a silver snake chain which is 16 inches in length.

The Vanilla Link jewellery collection, handmade in Mayfair by award-winning designer jeweller Nikki Galloway, is exclusive to Nude Jewellery’s London Jewellery Boutique. 

Nude Jewellery stocks a wide range of contemporary jewellery collections including modern style, unusual designs and statement jewellery. Nude Jewellery showcases new and established jewellery designers who create exquisite unusual jewellery including silver, fine handmade diamond and gemstone pieces. Every collection has it’s own diversity and chosen based on the choice of materials, craftsmanship and unique style.

I really like the unique look of the Vanilla Links silver pendant, with the hammered texture really giving it something special rather than just a plain silver which is more common. Despite the ‘rough and ready’ look, this piece is elegant and I would happily wear it to an evening event or Wedding.

I also really liked the packaging which you can see below – the jewellery box coming en-robed in a lovely silky fabric with a tie closing which adds to the special feel of this piece.

Overall I am awarding the Vanilla Links Silver Pendant from Nikki Galloway 4 out of 5 stars for offering me a sophisticated look without conforming to the norm, and adding a bit of contemporary rebellion to my jewellery box.
