Design and Craftsmanship

This charm was part of Links of London’s broader exploration of everyday icons in sculptural form. The polished surface reflects light like a melody catching air, while the fluid lines of the note stem and the rounded head balance elegance with playfulness. Measuring 20mm high and 12mm wide, the charm is hallmarked LL 925 with a 2010 date letter and fitted with the brand’s signature 9×7mm oval bail, engraved with the three-ring logo.

The charm is supplied with a sterling silver split ring, making it instantly compatible with Links of London Sweetie Bracelets or pendants from the same era.

Musical Symbolism

The quaver, known internationally as an eighth note, is a universal emblem of rhythm and creativity. It represents tempo, energy, and motion — the heartbeat of every song. In jewellery form, it becomes a subtle statement of individuality for those who find meaning in music, creativity, or emotional expression.
