The Elisa Pendant: A Contemporary Celebration of Gemstone Variety

The Kendra Scott Elisa pendant necklace has rapidly become a popular jewelry item, celebrated for its versatility and range of gemstone options. While not directly tied to traditional birthstone lore, the Elisa’s availability with materials like ruby, citrine, opal, and mother-of-pearl allows for a personalized connection to specific months or preferences. This article will detail the characteristics of the Elisa pendant, the materials it features, and the care instructions provided by the manufacturer.

A Modern Icon

The Elisa pendant necklace is described as Kendra Scott’s number one best seller, with one necklace sold every minute. Its design is intended to be adaptable, suitable for both dressing up and dressing down. The pendant features a rhodium or 14k gold-plated brass setting, suspended from an adjustable chain with a lobster claw closure. The pendant itself measures approximately 2/5 inch in height and 7/10 inch in width, with a chain circumference of 15 inches and an adjuster length of 2 inches. The total weight of the necklace is 0.2 oz.

Material Variations and Aesthetic Appeal

The Elisa pendant is offered with a diverse selection of materials, each contributing a unique aesthetic. These include:

Lab Grown White Opal: This option provides a luminous, iridescent appearance.
Iridescent Drusy: Drusy refers to a coating of tiny crystals on the surface of a stone, creating a sparkling effect.
Ruby Red Glass: This variation features a vibrant red hue, reminiscent of the traditional July birthstone.
Citrine: Offering a warm, yellow to orange color, this material is associated with November.
Ivory Mother-of-Pearl: This organic gem exhibits a delicate, pearly luster.
London Blue Glass: A deep, rich blue color is characteristic of this glass variation.

These materials are presented as options within the Elisa pendant design, allowing customers to select a style that suits their individual taste. Kendra Scott also offers coordinating pieces, such as bracelets and earrings, in matching materials, allowing for a cohesive jewelry ensemble.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of the Elisa pendant. Kendra Scott advises removing the jewelry when washing hands, swimming, exercising, cleaning, or styling hair. This is because soaps, chlorine, detergents, cleaning agents, and hair products can remove the plating from the brass setting. The manufacturer provides free return shipping for eligible items, but notes that engraved pieces, birthday discount purchases, gift cards, Kendra Scott branded merchandise, custom pieces created at the Color Bar™, and permanently discounted or marked down merchandise are considered final sale and are not eligible for return or exchange. Unworn, unused items can be returned within 30 days of receipt in original packaging with tags attached for a full refund.
