Product Description

14K Gold Caduceus Medical Pendant Necklace

The caduceus — the winged staff entwined with twin serpents — is one of the most recognized symbols of medicine and healthcare, rendered here as a solid 14K gold pendant on an adjustable chain. Handcrafted in New York City, it's a considered gift for doctors, nurses, medical students, and anyone who has built a life around caring for others.

The design

Every detail of the caduceus is sculpted in three dimensions — the layered feathers of the wings, the coil of each serpent, the central rod — so the symbol reads clearly from a distance and rewards a closer look. The fluted bail is generously sized for everyday wear, and the high-polish finish catches light from any angle.

The chain

The pendant arrives on a 16–18" cable chain with an adjustable clasp, so it can sit at the collarbone or drop slightly lower depending on how you wear it. One length suits most necklines, layered or worn on its own.

The metal

Choose solid 14K gold in three colors: warm 14K yellow gold, cool 14K white gold, or soft 14K rose gold. Every option is solid gold throughout — never plated, never gold-filled — and all gold is nickel-free, so it stays comfortable against skin for daily wear.

Handcrafted in New York City

Each piece is made to order by founder Dimitri in our Queens, NYC workshop, with roughly 2–3 weeks of production from the time your order is confirmed. Every order ships free and fully insured, carries a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, and non-customized pieces can be returned within 14 days. Questions?

Product Information

Size & Fit Guide

Pendant Dimensions:

Our aquamarine pendants are carefully proportioned to complement any neckline. The pendant typically measures 12-15mm in width, creating an elegant focal point without overwhelming the wearer.

Chain Length Options:

  • 16 inches: Sits at the collarbone, perfect for layering with other delicate necklaces or wearing with high necklines
  • 18 inches: Classic length that sits just below the collarbone, our most popular choice
  • 20 inches: Sits at the chest, versatile for most necklines and body types
  • 22 inches: Longer length ideal for open necklines, V-necks, and creating a statement look

How to Measure: Measure a necklace you already own and love, or use a soft measuring tape around your neck to your desired length. If you're between sizes, we recommend going with the longer option for versatility.

Care Instructions

Caring for Your Aquamarine Pendant:

Aquamarine is a relatively durable gemstone (7.5-8 on the Mohs hardness scale), but proper care ensures it maintains its beautiful blue color and brilliance for generations.

Cleaning Your Pendant:

  • Use warm water and mild dish soap with a soft cloth or soft-bristled brush
  • Gently scrub around the setting to remove any dirt or oils
  • Rinse thoroughly with clean water and pat dry with a soft cloth
  • Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and steam cleaning, which can damage the gemstone

Caring for 14K Gold:

  • 14K gold is durable and resistant to tarnishing, but can develop a patina over time
  • For a brighter shine, gently polish with a soft, lint-free cloth
  • Professional cleaning and polishing is available upon request
  • Avoid exposing gold to harsh chemicals, chlorine, and saltwater

Storage Recommendations:

  • Store in a soft pouch or jewelry box away from direct sunlight
  • Keep away from extreme heat and humidity
  • Store separately from other jewelry to prevent scratching
  • Remove before swimming, showering, or exercising

What to Avoid:

  • Harsh chemical cleaners and abrasive materials
  • Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight (can fade color)
  • Extreme temperature changes
  • Contact with perfumes, lotions, and cosmetics
  • Chlorine and saltwater environments
