Men's pendants beyond the cross: bars, compasses, arrowheads and stars
Not every man wants a religious symbol around his neck. Many want a pendant that is simply a good shape: a polished bar, a compass, an arrowhead, a star. This page is about those geometric and symbolic pendants. They are easy to wear every day, they do not need explaining, and they work with a t-shirt as well as a shirt.
Each pendant comes on its own chain, in stainless steel or titanium steel (a stainless steel alloy, not pure titanium). Silver is bare polished steel; gold-tone and black are platings over steel. For crosses and crucifixes, see our men's cross pendant chains.
The shapes, side by side
| Pendant | Size or detail | Chain |
|---|---|---|
| Bar pendant, box chain | 40 x 5 mm four-sided bar | Box chain, 60 cm |
| Rectangular bar pendant | Solid bar, rounded edges | Twisted chain, 18" + 2" extender |
| Square pendant | Octagonal frame, black inlay | Box chain, 60 cm |
| Navigational compass | 20 mm, engraved N, S, E, W | Link chain, 53 cm |
| Compass pendant, antiqued | Eight-point star, rope border | Box chain, about 60 cm |
| Arrowhead | Matte, engraved chevrons | Wheat chain, 60 cm |
| Four-point star | Polished star | Snake and curb chain, 20" to 22" |
Which shape suits you
Bars: the most discreet
A bar is the cleanest pendant there is. The Titanium Steel Box Chain with Bar Pendant hangs on the upper chest; the Rectangular Bar Pendant Necklace sits higher, at the collarbone.
Compasses: a symbol of direction
The compass is a classic gift for a graduation, a move or a new start. The Navigational Compass Pendant Necklace is small and bright; the Compass Pendant Necklace has a darker, antiqued face; the Compass Pendant Rope Chain Necklace comes as a solid medallion or an open compass rose.
Arrowhead and star: more character
The Arrowhead Pendant Wheat Chain Necklace has sharp edges and a matte finish, in black, gold-tone or silver. The star pendant mixes two chain textures for a more styled look.
Size: small pendant, short chain
A small pendant on a long chain gets lost; a large one on a short chain looks crowded. Keep small pieces (20 mm compass, bar pendants) at 18" to 22", and larger ones on about 24". To see all our pendant necklaces, including medallions, browse men's chain pendants.
You can keep these pendants on in the shower, at the gym, at the sea or in the pool. Rinse in clean water after the sea or the pool; perfume and chlorine wear gold-tone and black plating over time.
