CHAIN ​​SIZE

How to Choose Your Chain Length

• Measure around your neck using a flexible tape measure. Place it where you would normally like the chain to rest. If you don't have a tape measure, you can use a piece of string and then measure it with a ruler.
• Chains can vary in length depending on the style you prefer. Here are some popular options.
  

Chain Length Table (American Standard)

• 16" (40 cm) Fitted to the neck, choker style
• 18" (45 cm) Rests on the collarbone, very versatile
• 20" (50 cm) Below the neck, ideal for small pendants
• 22" (55 cm) Medium drop, above the neckline
• 24" (60 cm) Falls a little lower, longer style
• 30" (76 cm) Extra long, below the bust, bohemian style

Tips:

• If you use pendants or charms, be sure to choose a chain long enough for the pendant to hang comfortably.
• 16" and 18" chains are very popular for a classic, fitted look around the neck.
• For a more relaxed and elegant style, lengths from 20" to 30" offer more versatility.
