Necklace length guide
See where each length falls on the body. Most everyday necklaces are 18″ (46 cm) — they sit just below the collarbone. Pick longer for V-necks, shorter for high necklines.
| Length | cm | Style name | Best with |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14″ | 36 | Collar | Off-shoulder, deep V |
| 16″ | 41 | Choker | Boat neck, scoop, off-shoulder |
| 18″ | 46 | Princess | Anything — most versatile |
| 20″ | 51 | Matinee | Crew neck, button-up, V-neck |
| 24″ | 61 | Matinee | V-neck, blouses, business |
| 30″ | 76 | Opera | Sweaters, dresses, layering |
| 34–35″ | 86–89 | Rope / Lariat | High necks, long pendants |
- Not sure where to start? 18″ (46 cm) is the safest universal length — it suits almost every neckline and frame.
- Match neckline. Higher tops call for longer chains (20″+); open necklines look best with shorter (16–18″).
- Layering. Stack with at least 2″ (5 cm) of difference — e.g. 16″ + 18″ + 20″ — so each piece sits clearly.
- Heavy pendants drop. A bold pendant on a fine chain effectively shortens the look by ~0.5″ (1–2 cm). If between sizes, size up.
- Frame. Petite frames flatter shorter chains (16–18″). Taller frames carry longer (20–24″) beautifully. Plus-size frames often look elongated by 20″+.
- How to measure your own chain. Lay it flat and measure from end to end including the clasp. That's the standard length quoted on the product page.

The warmth of solid gold, the price of silver. This classic piece is 14K gold-bonded — real gold heat-fused to a sterling silver core, not a thin plating.
Details
- 14K gold-bonded over a 925 sterling silver core — real gold, heat-fused
- Chain length 16″ with 2″ extender (18″ total)
- Hypoallergenic, nickel-free
- Backed by a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects
Why it's special
Standard gold plating is microns thick and fades fast. Our gold-bonded process heat-fuses a much thicker layer of real 14K gold to a sterling silver core, which is why it holds colour through years of daily wear instead of weeks.
Care
Treat it like fine gold. Avoid perfume, lotion, and chlorinated water, wipe with a soft microfiber cloth after wear, and store in the jewelry box it ships in to protect the bonded gold surface.
14K gold-bonded — not plated
Real gold heat-fused to a sterling silver core. 10–20× thicker than standard plating. Built to last years, not months.
Real gold
Solid 14-karat gold layer — not gold-colored coating that wears off.
Thicker
Heat-fused under high pressure to a sterling silver core. Won't flake or peel like plating.
Daily wear
Lasts years through showers, workouts, and everyday life. Hypoallergenic silver underneath.
After 1 year of daily wear
Standard gold-plated wears off in 6–12 months. Olivia gold-bonded stays gold for years.
