Crystal Pretzel Charm - Gold Stainless Steel - 15.5x12.4mm
A Pretzel With Salt Made of Light
A pretzel in gold-tone stainless steel, wider than it is tall, with the crossed loops worked as smooth rounded bars. Around nine small clear crystals are set into the top of the loops, scattered the way coarse salt sits on a real one. It measures 15.5mm wide by 12.4mm tall.
At 1.47g it is light for its width. It hangs from a closed round ring and turns freely; the back carries the same knot but no crystals, so it reads plain gold from behind.

Choose Charm only to add it to a bracelet you already own. Charm + Clasp adds a small lobster clasp so it clips straight on - no pliers, no open links - and it works just as well on a bag, a zip pull, a keyring or a watch strap. Charm + Gold Bracelet or Charm + Silver Bracelet pairs it with our Gold or Silver Paperclip Chain Bracelet - fine-gauge stainless steel, adjustable from 16cm to 20cm. Bought as a set they cost 30% less than buying separately.
Salt on bread is one of the oldest gestures of welcome there is - Slavic bread-and-salt greetings, the Roman salarium, the pinch thrown over a shoulder. Setting it as light rather than crystal keeps the idea and loses the superstition. A knot that says come in, sit down. A gift for her who feeds people before she asks them anything.

The crystals are glue-set into shallow cups. Showers, swimming pools, hot tubs and ultrasonic cleaners all attack the adhesive rather than the stones - take it off before water and clean with a dry soft cloth. The metal underneath is stainless steel and does not tarnish, rust or turn skin green. Full guidance at our Stainless Steel Care Card and the JewelCare™ hub.
FAQs
1. Are these diamonds?
No. Around nine clear crystals - glue-set rhinestones, not diamonds and not cubic zirconia.
2. Is the back set too?
No. The back is the same rounded knot in plain gold, with no crystals on it.
3. How does it compare to the plain pretzels?
This one is the middle size and the only one in the family with stones. IHSMC120 is the small plain gold, IHSMC121 the small silver and IHSMC123 the large plain gold.
4. It reacts slightly to a magnet - is that a problem?
No. Cast stainless steel normally contains a small amount of ferrite, deliberately, because it stops the metal cracking as it solidifies - that is what a magnet finds. Brass and copper are entirely non-magnetic, so a magnetic response actually rules them out. Full explanation in Is Magnetic Stainless Steel Jewellery Fake?.
5. Does it arrive gift-ready?
Yes - every order is packed to give. See JewelGift™.
How to Style the Crystal Pretzel
Wide and low, so it sits well as the centre of a bracelet with narrow charms either side. Keep other set-stone pieces a link or two away so the scattered light stays legible. Hang it on a DuoTone™ or FortunaLink™ bracelet, browse the whole MiniCharm™ range, or start your stack at JewelBuild™.
