Choosing a chain length and pendant size
Where a pendant should sit, and how to picture the size before it arrives.
Chain length decides where the piece sits: 40 to 43 cm rests at the base of the neck, 45 cm sits just below the collarbone, and 50 cm or more drops onto the chest. If you want the pendant visible under an open collar, start at 45 cm.
Pendant size reads differently on different frames. A 15 to 18 mm pendant is quiet enough for daily wear; 20 to 25 mm is a clearer statement and works well in photographs. Bigger is not automatically better — the photo has to stay sharp.
Measure something you already wear. Lay a chain you like flat and measure it end to end, including the clasp. That number is more reliable than guessing, and if you tell us your height and what you wear most, we will suggest a starting point.
