“Neko” means “cat” in Japanese, long cherished as a symbol of protection and good luck. Each Neko medallion is handmade in Los Angeles, so no two are ever exactly alike, much like the beloved cats who inspire them. Designed to be worn on a necklace or bracelet, every piece honors a special feline, past or present.

Why we love it
The Neko is easy to wear and easy to gift, surely to be cherished by any cat lover! It is crafted from solid gold and therefore long-lasting. It has a unique "worry stone" finish that emulates the natural surface of the intaglio it was casted from. Gift yourself or a loved one a sweet feline friend!

Note for Matte Edition Nekos: Due to the matte finishing technique, there may be very slight variations in color. This is normal, not noticeable, and just adds to the uniqueness of each handmade pendant.
Note for all solid gold: It is natural for solid gold pieces to gain scratches and patina with time. Higher karat gold tends to scratch easier due to the softer metal.

Let customers speak for us
from 42 reviewsMy Little Star will be a part of my regular rotation. Such a quality piece - it may be small but it is mighty! It shipped quickly and securely. I am very happy with my purchase!

Love my star charm! She’s the perfect addition to my stack!
I've missed out on a few drops in the past because I hesitated too long, but I finally snagged a little star. I picked up a beautiful yellow-green sapphire "fae fjord" shaped like a heart. Absolutely love the piece. It's solid, eye-catching, and just makes me happy. I'm looking forward to adding another in my collection. Please create some with garnets :)
Love love love. I have a few stars now and this one is even more amazing

I love my Little Star! The diamond has a soft, romantic glow, and the charm’s weight makes it feel truly substantial. The star points also make it the perfect little fidget — beautiful, playful, and grounding.
Absolutely lovely. The perfect star charm. Amazing communication and quick delivery.
Amazing! Worth every penny. Get on the wait list and adopt a star.
I hardly know where to begin with this piece; it truly takes my breath away. Beyond my personal sentiment, it is an heirloom-worthy treasure: exquisitely crafted, flawlessly executed, and designed with such elegant simplicity that it still makes a striking statement. The diamond itself is unlike anything I’ve ever seen, absolutely mesmerizing. Since receiving it, I’ve built every jewelry look around this pendant because I simply can’t bring myself to take it off.
Working with Tris made the entire experience even more meaningful. She was a dream to work with, patient, attentive, and always willing to go above and beyond to answer my questions. I am deeply grateful for her guidance and artistry, and I know I’ll be a lifelong client.
I love, love, love my OEC diamond star! The sparkly diamond and buttery 18k gold have elevated my go to neck stack. Could not be happier!
The little star is stunning. More beautiful at home than on instagram. And it was stunning on the gram. Mine has an opalescent sapphire and it is so beautiful and cool. And definitely an heirloom. I see myself passing this to my daughter one day. But until then it is all mine. Go get yourself on the waitlist and get a little star.
I received my star in the mail today and I gasped! It’s just sooo good.
Has a guaranteed spot on my neck. It’s just perfect. Thank you
I absolutely love my tiny star! I got to pick out the exact stone I wanted and she also gave amazing feedback on how it would look in the setting. Amazing customer service and super communicative. Easily my favorite piece of jewelry right now. Will be buying many more!
