14k Yellow Gold Graduation Cap 2023 Charm Pendant

About this piece

This 14k yellow gold charm depicts a mortarboard graduation cap with a twisted rope tassel and the numerals '23' worked into the design below — all cast as a single open-back piece that slides onto any standard chain. The front face combines a sunburst-textured cap top with a polished button center, polished numerals, and a finely detailed braided tassel that falls alongside the '23'; the back carries a brushed satin finish. A ridged bail at the top fits a fine to mid-weight chain.

At just under three-quarters of an inch in total length, the pendant sits neatly at the neckline without overpowering it — readable and dimensional without being heavy. The open silhouette keeps the design airy and the polished yellow gold catches light well against both metal and chain styles.

Intended as a keepsake for a 2023 graduate, it wears equally well on a delicate chain for everyday use or layered with other charms for a more personal arrangement. The solid 14k yellow gold construction makes it a piece that holds up over time, not a moment to be put away.
