CHAIN STYLES
CHAIN LENGTH
Length is key when choosing a chain. The right necklace length complements your outfit, showcases your style, and highlights your features. Chains are versatile—wear them subtle and understated or as a statement for special occasions.
METAL TYPE AND STRENGTH
Why does the type of metal matter for necklaces? It’s not just about appearance—it also affects strength, price, versatility, and everyday wear. Explore the four most common options in our full jewelry metals guide.
-
STERLING SILVER
Sterling silver is affordable and versatile, best for occasional wear due to oxidization. -
GOLD
Gold comes in multiple colors and karats, with higher karats offering more purity and durability. -
BRASS
Brass is affordable, durable, low maintenance, and offers a gold-like look for sensitive skin. -
STAINLESS STEEL
Stainless steel is durable, modern, and ideal for everyday wear, especially in men’s styles.
CLASP IS KEY
There are many different types of clasps in the world of jewelry. But when it comes to necklaces, there are only two main choices for a secure fastening: spring-ring and lobster claw.
-
SPRING-RING CLASP
Spring-ring clasps use a lever to open, securing necklaces, bracelets, and anklets. -
LOBSTER CLAW CLASP
Lobster claw clasps use a spring mechanism and are easy to open and secure. -
EXTENDABLE CLASP
Extendable clasps add length options, letting chokers adjust into princess or matinee styles. -
TONGUE AND GROOVE CLASP
Tongue and groove clasps blend into designs and lock securely with a click and a safety clasp.
