Description

The smallest declaration of faith you can wear. A solid 14k gold Chai, the Hebrew word for life, sitting quietly at your collarbone every single day. She will not take this off.

Chai is one of the most beloved symbols in Jewish tradition. The two Hebrew letters that spell life, worn as a blessing and a reminder. This mini Chai necklace renders the symbol in solid 14k yellow gold at a dainty 1/4 inch, intentionally small and minimalist for women who want their faith present without being loud about it. Solid gold, not plated, not filled, real 14k yellow gold that holds its warm color through daily life and is safe for sensitive skin at every age. This is the necklace given at baby namings, worn through bat mitzvahs, layered for decades. A classic Hanukkah gift, a perfect birthday present for a Jewish daughter, or a meaningful self-purchase for the woman who wants one piece she never takes off. 16-inch chain, sits high at the collarbone, perfect for layering.

  • Material: Solid 14k yellow gold, genuine precious metal stamped 585, not gold plated not gold filled, safe for sensitive skin and built for a lifetime of daily wear
  • Pendant size: 1/4 inch Chai charm, dainty and minimalist, intentionally petite for layering or solo wear
  • Chain: Solid 14k yellow gold chain, available in 16 inch, 18 inch, and 20 inch, or charm only without chain
  • Stone: No stones, clean solid gold design for a pure minimalist look
  • Layering: Pairs beautifully with a Star of David necklace or worn alone as an everyday fine jewelry piece
  • Ships gift wrapped from Los Angeles with a meaning card explaining Chai

Simple and perfect

I gave this to my daughter for turning 18, graduation, and luck in college. She LOVES it and it layers perfectly with her other favorite necklaces so that she never has to take it off. It is so dainty and tiny; it's like a little surprise when it catches the light. She is wearing the 14" which sits super close to her neck (actually sits lower than it is here; she had just fastened it at that moment).

Beautiful necklace!

I am absolutely thrilled with the jewelry I purchased. It was perfect for my neighbor's bat mitzvah celebration. She loves the necklace, in particular the size. She is a bit of a rough and tumble kid and the small size doesn't get in the way of her activities. Her mom loves the charm and its symbolism.
I had ordered the necklace later than I should have and the company went out of their way to make the gift was received on time. I highly recommend purchasing items from this company.

Nice but not quite (as pictured)

Perhaps the product has changed, and they haven't yet updated the page? The chain is not what is pictured, which is disappointing. As least to my eye, the chain pictured is more of a box or snake style, and the one I received is a loose link. I was specifically looking for the style pictured, and not a loose link. I tried to find out as much as possible about this product before receiving it yesterday. And I'm not sure if I'll keep it because of the different chain. It's nice, just not exactly what I was expecting.

Perfect addition to my growing collection!

I have not removed my Mini Chai necklace since I received it in the mail. I also wear my Hebrew Letters on Medium Gauge Paper Clip Chain every day. I love that I can adjust the length of the chain to suit the particular neckline I wear! Again, thank you Alef Bet. You have a customer for life.

Whether worn alone or with other jewelry it is an elegant reminder that each day is a treasure…( just like it is)

To a long life!

I purchased the 14k gold mini chai necklace for my granddaughter’s baby naming. Although she might not wear it for awhile, I feel it will be appropriate for her to have/wear her entire life.

Elegant, meaningful 18th birthday gift

I bought this chai for my daughter’s 18th birthday to remind her to always celebrate life. It’s perfectly understated and elegant. She hasn’t taken it off since. It’s my second Alef bet piece — I love my diamond mini Star of David, similarly elegant and looking as gorgeous today as it did when I bought it after Oct 7 to proudly support my community.

    Is your jewelry waterproof?

    Most of our sterling silver and 14k gold pieces are water-safe for everyday activities like showering and swimming. However, we recommend removing your jewelry before using harsh chemicals or soaps to maintain its beauty. For red string bracelet designs, we suggest keeping them dry to prolong their lifespan.

    How do I care for my jewelry?

    For regular cleaning, gently wipe your jewelry with a soft polishing cloth. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and warm water with a soft brush, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Store your pieces separately to prevent scratching. Visit our Care Guide for detailed instructions on maintaining specific materials.
