What to engrave

Names, dates, a word you repeat to yourself. Short is better — under eight letters keeps the chain elegant.

Beads vs bars

Round beads are dots, elongated bars are dashes, and a plain link separates letters.

Gifting it

Pair the piece with the translation on a card — the reveal is the whole gift.

How a morse code necklace works

A morse code necklace turns a word into jewellery. Each letter of the morse code alphabet becomes a run of round beads (dots) and bars (dashes), separated by a short length of bare chain. To everyone else it reads as a delicate beaded piece; to you it reads as a sentence.

Popular words and phrases

LOVE, MAMA, ALWAYS, BREATHE, a child's name, an anniversary year, or I love you in morse code for the boldest version. Dates work beautifully too — see the morse code numbers chart.

Choosing your metal

Gold vermeil gives the warmest contrast between bead and chain, rose gold softens it, and sterling silver keeps it quiet. All three are previewed above with the real bead shapes.

Where to order one

Once your word looks right, have it hand-made as an 18k gold vermeil morse code necklace at Glamour Jewelry House.

Morse code necklace questions

What is a morse code necklace?
A necklace that spells a word in beads and bars — round beads are dots, bars are dashes, and gaps of chain separate the letters.
How do you read a morse code necklace?
Left to right: bead for dot, bar for dash, wider gap for a new letter. Type the pattern into the translator to decode it.
What word should I choose?
Short is better. Under eight letters keeps the chain balanced and the pattern readable.
