While charm is a generic term, it usually refers to ornaments attached to a bracelet, designed specifically to wear around a wrist. An accessory that hangs from the neck is usually better known as a pendant.\

Due to the difference in where they are worn, charms are usually crafted to be smoother and more rounded, to prevent friction and irritation. As such, they are made less delicate with less intricate details compared to our gold pendants, which can be highly elaborate.\

While some pendants can be worn as charms and vice versa, not all are appropriate to be worn in both ways. Pendants need to have bails wide enough to fit through the bracelet cord, and charms tend to have large holes visible from the sides, which may not look nice when worn on a more delicate chain. Certain charms may be too heavy for thin chains as well.
