Product Insights
Simons' Birth Month Floral Chain is a 19.99 CAD main-line Simons retail necklace, not a Fabrique 1840 artisan piece, priced flat across all twelve equal in-stock month variants, which sit on one fixed 45 cm chain with an extender and clasp adding 1–3 inches and no flagship month, making the month the only choice while every variant shares one floral bloom and yellow gold-plated stainless steel body with no rose or white gold option and a warm yellow gold tone lighter than solid 14K or 18K, matching the listing's pale gold; the centre stone is a genuine semi-precious birthstone set to the standard month-stone list from January garnet to December turquoise, with some months accepting alternates such as June pearl or moonstone and October opal or tourmaline, so the colour option stores a birth month rather than a colourway, the stone colour tracks the month so variants differ from the red-centred listing photo, and the birth-flower tradition traces to Roman and Victorian custom predating the 1912 birthstone standard, while the keepsake follows Prince Albert's forget-me-not brooch for Queen Victoria; the multi-ring extender adjusts the pendant high over a crew neck, lower for a V-neck, long enough to clear a thick knit, and shortenable to keep the stone-set flower facing forward, with a 3–5 cm layering step for a second chain; the tradeoff is gold-plated steel rather than gold-filled—gold-filled bonds a 5–100 times thicker gold layer onto brass—and the plating wears first at the chain's flex points while the steel base resists tarnish, a hidden nickel or copper strike layer bonds the gold to the steel, the stainless base avoids brass jewellery's green marks though nickel release depends on grade, and care requires removing it before showers, swimming or workouts to protect the stone and plating.
Verified claims
- Birthstone stones
- Set with a genuine semi-precious stone matched to the standard month-stone list, garnet for January to turquoise for December.
- Alternate birthstones
- Some months accept two birthstones, including June pearl or moonstone and October opal or tourmaline.
- Stone color
- The centre stone colour tracks the month, so variants differ from the red-centred listing photo.
- Tradition
- Birth flowers trace to Roman and Victorian custom, predating the 1912 birthstone standard
- Plating
- The gold plating wears through first at the chain's flex points, while the steel base resists tarnish
- Care
- Take it off before showers, swimming or workouts to protect the stone and plating.
- Base metal
- Gold-plated stainless steel with a semi-precious stone; a hidden nickel or copper strike layer bonds the gold to the steel.
- Gold-filled
- Plated steel, not gold-filled: the gold-filled alternative's bonded gold layer is 5 to 100 times thicker but sits on brass.
- Neckline fit
- Extender sets the pendant high over a crew neck, lower for a V-neck, and long enough to clear a thick knit
- Layering
- Sets a 3-5 cm step so the flower layers cleanly with a second chain.
- Pendant flip
- The multi-ring extender lets the chain be shortened so the stone-set floral pendant stays facing forward.
- Length and adjustability
- The 45 cm chain has an extender and clasp that add 1-3 inches of adjustable length
- Symbolism
- All twelve months share one floral bloom; the center stone carries the birth month
- Keepsake
- A flower jewel marking one specific person follows Prince Albert's forget-me-not brooch for Queen Victoria
- Month availability
- All twelve month variants are in stock at once, so any birth month can be ordered.
- Month variants
- All twelve months are equal variants on one fixed 45 cm chain, with no flagship month, so the month is the only choice.
- Flat pricing
- All twelve month variants cost the same 19.99 CAD, with no premium month.
- Stone by month
- The month choice also sets the center stone, from January garnet to December turquoise.
- Positioning
- Sold as main-line Simons retail jewelry, not as a Fabrique 1840 artisan piece
- Stone identity
- Genuine semi-precious stone that changes by month, from January's garnet to December's turquoise.
- Construction
- Gold-plated steel, not gold-filled; gold-filled bonds a far thicker gold layer onto brass.
- Design variation
- All twelve months share one floral pendant; only the stone colour changes.
- Hypoallergenic
- The stainless base does not give the green marks of brass jewellery, and its nickel release depends on grade.
- Gold tone
- Warm yellow gold plating, lighter than solid 14K or 18K, matching the listing's pale gold
- Metal tone
- Every month is the same yellow gold-plated steel, with no rose or white gold variant.
- Color option
- The Color option stores a birth month from January to December, not a colourway.
- Sizing
- Month is the only choice; every variant is one size on the same 45 cm chain.

| Birth Month Floral Chain: Choose this for a birth-month gift necklace, available in twelve month variants from January through December, each in one size. It is a gold-plated stainless steel piece with a small scalloped floral pendant set with a round semi-precious stone at its center, on a thin gold-tone box chain measuring 17.75 inches (45 cm) with an adjustable extender chain and clasp. Note the listing does not specify whether the stated length includes the extender, and the specific stone type is not identified.[1,2,3] | Openwork Flower Necklace: Choose this if you want a stainless steel necklace with a single openwork flower pendant of five rounded petals and a small central bead, on a fine cable-style chain shown in gold tone in the product image. It comes in one size with a 20 inch (51 cm) length plus an adjustable extender chain and clasp, which suits shoppers who want some fit flexibility. Note the gold-tone appearance is a visual assessment from the image rather than confirmed material text, so check it matches your expectations if metal tone matters to you.[4,5] | Golden Letter Chain: Choose this if you want a minimalist, personalized initial necklace in gold-plated stainless steel with an adjustable 20 inch (51 cm) fine cable chain. Reviewers describe it as lightweight and comfortable for everyday wear, with one reporting no discoloration after a month of 24/7 use, and many found it a thoughtful gift for Christmas, birthdays, or anniversaries. Note the pendant is small—praised by many as just right for a dainty look and fine for a child, but one reviewer called it super small for an adult—and the gold tone is darker than typical 10k gold, so don't expect a bright gold look.[6] |
