Bought as xmas present for my friend, she absolutely loved it and really appreciated the fact that it supported black companies. Said it complemented her skin and loved how unique it was.
Marianna F.
Cute piece! It's perfect for summer.. It does get opaque if you sweat a lot but it can easily be cleaned and made sparkle again :) I had a small problem with my first delivery and the yala staff was extremely helpful and friendly.
Juliet E.
It's a really beautiful pendant that I first spotted on your site several years ago. I decided to treat myself and it's lovely and meaningful and I shall always keep it. Nice touch to get a hand written note with it too!
Rebecca F.
I’m so pleased with the necklace, the packaging, the personal message, everything! Particularly the Tony’s Chocoloney addition, which is our favourite.
Thank you for being such a thoughtful company!
Alice H.
bought it for a friend's birthday and she loved it!
Marlin K.
The necklace is really nice but the chain broke the first time I tried it on. I tried contacting Yala but no response.
Pamela O.
I gave this necklace to my granddaughter for Christmas and she was delighted
Katherine S.
This (the zero waste brass pendant) is my first purchase from Yala, and I literally could not be more pleased with it! The necklace itself is even more beautiful & classic in person, arrived/shipped quickly (to me in the US), was packaged beautifully & clearly with a lot of thought put into the impact/ease of recycling, while still being beautiful & fun to open (came in a lovely fabric pouch that is reusable, compostable, etc.- although it is beautiful enough I will definitely be keeping it or using it as reusable gift wrap in the future vs. composting!) Honestly was just a joy to receive, to open, and now to wear (all while feeling great about supporting a B-Corp that clearly walks the walk, not just talks the talk!)
To the artisans - thank you for taking 'waste' and creating something so lovely, that I plan to treasure for years to come!
Victoria B.
Great service and a beautiful necklace, love it!
Melanie G.
Loved it, it's a Christmas gift for my sister though!
Allan D.
It was a gift to our granddaughter and we are taking it to Germany at xmas to give to her.She actually spotted it and spoke about it. So no more info at present.
Aoife N.
I have one of these pendants myself (it was a gift for my birthday) and I love it so I bought one for my sister for her birthday too. We both care a lot about ethical production and sustainability as well as liking nice jewellery so I thought it was a good present :)
Katrina W.
This necklace is so beautiful. A really attractive length, falling just below my collar bones. Can't recommend this enough!
Lesley
Love the look of this pendant, it goes with so many outfits! Only slight issue has been the chain has been leaving a grey mark on my neck however I polished it with some gold cleaner and this seems to have done the trick
Max V.
I loved the amount of care put into the packaging, and making sure this gorgeous pendant arrived safely. It’s become one of my favourite pieces and I even wear it when I have nowhere to be. It has such a lovely finish and I love that each of these pendants is unique. :)
Katie F.
Absolutely gorgeous piece! Goes with everything and I love how it’s completely unique. My only feedback is that the clasp is so delicate that sometimes it’s a little tricky to do up myself (although I have rather long nails so might not be an issue for everything!) Wouls still rate it 5/5 and would absolutely recommend as a staple piece that I’ll wear again and again x
Erin A.
Beautiful and layers well with other jewellery. Exactly like the pictures.
Ludo F.
I love love love my brass pendant.
Love the story behind it, love the packaging it comes with, love how it sits just below my collarbone when I wear it.
Couldn't be happier! Can't wait to try out more jewellery from Yala!
Tamara V.
The most beautiful necklace arrived promptly, in gorgeous packaging along with information about the brass maker and a reminder to recycle remaining packaging! Will definitely order more from Yala in the future!!!
Sophie O.
Such beautiful jewellery! Such care goes into the packing. You will not regret buying anything from this gorgeous shop!
Sarah P.
LOVE IT! I discovered this wonderful company whilst falling down the rabbit hole of Social Media at 4am one morning, insomnia pays off sometimes. There's so many great things to say about this company, sustainability, ethics, quality but please check them out yourselves as there just isn't enough room here! My purchase came SUPER quick (express) and the packaging was gorgeous if you're thinking of gifting. Now whilst I am a sucker for lovely packaging, my necklace inside was BEAUTIFUL! The nugget was just the right size and I've had so many compliments when worn. I'm so glad I discovered this company and I'm off to have another wee shop, whilst sipping on a cheeky wee Gin in the glorious sunshine. P.S I'm in Scotland so it's rare!
Hitaishi V.
Bought it as a birthday present & they loved the necklace and thougjt the packaging was just WOW
Stacey G.
The chain is way too short. Yet, the photos you show on the website show the bobble mid chest. I find that impossible with a chain measuring 15 inches. I needed up gifting the necklace to my 14 year old niece. It hangs lovely on her.
Meg C.
I love everything about Yala...another beautiful gift for a friend. Absolutely gorgeous.
Hannah H.
Beautiful pendant, so cool that it's zero waste!
Deborah S.
Everything about the zero waste necklace is perfect
Nadia H.
Love this item, it's so beautiful!
Jacks B.
I saw Yala (and Bristol) mentioned in the Times and dashed to the website…I bought this for a friend’s birthday and couldn’t help but get one for me? What a beautiful piece of jewellery with a really lovely story. The packaging was beautiful (and ethical). All round a lovely experience. Thankyou!
Alexa L.
I love it, it’s so unique and has such a lovely story behind it.
Ellie B.
I love the heavy weight of the necklace - it's a very reassuring feeling, and doesn't bounce and hit me if I have to run! I really love it
Katie-Rose R.
Absolutely love this necklace, goes with absolutely everything and is stunning. The packaging was lovely and delivery quick, amazing company.
Shirley W.
Love mynew pendant from Yala. Here pictured with a traditional Kenyan necklace that I bought in Kenya many years ago.
Linda R.
Beautifully packaged. Love it!
Naomi W.
Super fast service, lovely packaging, beautiful product, great ethos. What more could you want?
Olivia F.
I bought this as a birthday gift for a friend. The packaging was great and my friend absolutely loved the necklace. Tempted to order something for myself now!
Natasha S.
Absolutely adore this unique little pendant. SO well made, all packaging is sustainable and real people feel real benefits of this business. I can't tell you how much I love it!
Becky .
Love my recycled brass necklace as much as I love the company! It works so well as an every day look and I feel great every time I wear it. Keep up the good work Yala, we need more businesses like yours ❤️
Judith P.
The Pendant arrived very quickly and beautifully packaged with a handwritten note and a colourful pouch for safekeeping. I love how it looks and how it feels in my hand.
Benjamin R.
Such a beautiful necklace and really high quality.
Nancy F.
A beautiful, sustainable piece of jewellery that is already a firm favourite. Comes in gorgeous packaging, service is excellent and I loved reading about the people who make the items. Highly recommend.
Michelle R.
I love my necklace. The design is so simple and therefore goes with everything. It’s nicely weighted, so feels good on, and I love that the company are doing all the good things to make their products ethical and sustainable. I guess my only negative is that the chain and pendant are two different materials and therefore colours and the chain is a little yellow for me. But overall I really love this piece and wear it daily. I can’t wait for the earrings I want to be back in stock too so I can buy more lovely pieces. Thanks Yala!
Kimberly M.
I am so thrilled with this purchase. I've worn it every day since I received it.
This company has really struck a chord with me and I will definitely be making another purchase from them.
Their ethos and branding is incredible, and I feel like it really is so wholesome.
This piece is weighty and feels like a luxury item without the heafty price tag.
And let me tell you, the packaging was STUNNING!!
Lauren G.
Absolutely beautiful necklace and great packaging to match! I loved that information on who made the necklace was included as well as a lovely reusable pouch. The packaging is all reusable or recyclable and the instructions that come with it are brilliant. Can’t wait to shop at Yala again in the future
Hannah L.
Really quick delivery, beautiful product in beautiful packaging. Have been recommending you to everybody
Sarah M.
Sent as a secret Santa present. They really liked it
Emily A.
Absolutely beautiful necklace - I don't want to take it off! I loved the thoughtful packaging and hand-written note inside, as well as information to see who helped make this stunning piece of jewellery. Thank you - I will definitely be shopping at Yala again. This is the future of ethical and sustainable business!
clare g.
I bought this for my sister and she loves it and has been wearing it everyday.
Antonia L.
This necklace was bought as a gift for my sister who loved it. It is a unique, beautiful quality pendant and chain. She has worn it layered with other necklaces as well as on its own and it looks great!
Yvonne T.
My daughter loved it as she is very environmentally conscious. The design is simple but effective and good value for money.
Elizabeth S.
Hi, if I can I will forward this on to the recipient of the lovely recycled brass pendant so that she can add her own view(she loves it).As the purchaser I found the whole process uplifting and the service personal and excellent. Your phone call to answer my questions was much appreciated.We both admire the jewellery you produce and also your ethics which shouldn’t be exceptional but still are.
I am so grateful that you have some things within my price range and I enjoyed reading about you all. During this odd time of being disconnected from others it seems especially precious to make connections with people who create the things we love.
I wish you all the best of health and happiness in 2021 and hope your business continues to thrive.
Amber B.
The necklace is gorgeous - I bought it for my sister for her 21st birthday and she loves it! Packaging is beautiful too.
Kwan W.

Jonathan H.
This was my wife's favourite Christmas present. The attention to detail in the packaging was perfect and the necklace is beautifully unique. The story behind the ethical crafting of their jewellery makes this more than just a necklace and we will be sure to buy more items in the future from Yala.
Sarah H.
Bought as a gift, recipient is very happy and it looks gorgeous, has a lovely weight and feel.

Aylen G.
My whole experience with Yala has been flawless - from day 1 when I discovered it and started exploring the website, the lovely pieces, the story behind each maker, to the seamless and speedy delivery service, to the lovely, thought-through sustainable packaging! And finally, the incredibly well made, stylish, lovely necklace. I now proudly wear my piece and tell everyone it's story :)
Karen S.
I love this necklace it’s very sturdy and pretty have had a lot of people asking where I brought it from
It’s lovely to have such a gorgeous piece and also to know that you have helped in a small way to contribute to a family in Africa not only financially but also for their self esteem being able to work and earn to support their families
Prerna U.
Another gorgeous offering from Yala. Beautiful and quite unique in its concept and appearance. It perks up even the most simple of outfits. Thank you Yala also for sharing the story of the artist-maker and for the beautiful (and responsible) packaging.
Dominique L.
Gorgeous yet simple necklace. Perfect for everyday wear.
Davina C.
Beautiful necklace, great story!

A present for my daughters 20th birthday. She absolutely adores the necklace - the beautiful design by artisan makers, the company’s ethics, social values and zero waste ethos and environmentally stunning packaging. Will definitely be purchasing many items in the future! Thank you x
Jemima K.
I love it and everything YALA stands for. Keep up the great work!
Meghan B.
It has such a beautiful shade of gold and it's the first thing I've ever bought and worn that's made me feel the story behind it. The shape and texture is amazing. And the fact it's made out of leftover brass from making other jewellery is just brilliant! Thank you
Sophia M.
Absolutely love the idea behind both this company and this necklace. Really well made, with a heavy pendant, durable chain and looks super stylish. Will definitely purchase from Yala again, and have already recommended to so many friends!

Helen W.
Love my pendant it sits beautifully and had lots of compliments. Thank you!

Beautiful necklace, pendant is larger and heavier than I expected (both plus points) - only downside is that I bought it as a gift for a friend, I may have to treat myself soon!!
Jeanette G.
Absolutely luv my necklace it's got a good weight to it so sits nicely x also it was packaged beautifully x definitely did not disappoint x Thank you so much xx
Jan F.
I love the idea of zero waste a brilliant idea and a beautiful piece of jewellery. I also loved the cards that came with it detailing who had made the necklace and re-usable packaging. I love it!
Asante sana
Deborah T.
Love the brass nugget and the recycling aspect. It looks fab but I have swapped it on to a longer stronger chain as it’s quite a weight.
Lily S.
You can’t see the detail in the photo but this is a beautiful necklace. If I’d seen it in a shop I’d have assumed I wouldn’t be able to afford it! Absolutely stunning. Love it!
Anna Z.
I absolutely love this necklace both from an aesthetic and story view. I think it's even more beautiful in person then on the photos and I love the idea that this beauty is the result of eliminating what would have otherwise been waste.
Timna D.
Beautiful, unique pendant which has a really nice weight to it - such a brilliant idea as well. Absolute winner!
