The Links of London 20/20 Necklace is one of the brand’s most iconic jewellery designs, released to celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2010. Featuring two interlocking rings—one in sterling silver and the other in either 18ct rose gold vermeil or 18ct yellow gold vermeil—the necklace was designed to represent unity, balance, and enduring connection.

A Symbol of Connection

The 20/20 Collection was introduced as part of Links of London’s milestone celebration, marking two decades of craftsmanship, innovation, and British design. The interlocking circle motif symbolises togetherness and continuity, reflecting the brand’s heritage and its customers’ shared stories.
