Guide to Choosing the Perfect Size for Chains and Necklaces
Chains and necklaces are jewelry pieces that add a touch of elegance and style to any outfit. Choosing the right size is essential to ensure a comfortable and perfect fit. Below, we provide a detailed guide to chain sizes for women and men.
For Women:
Chain Lengths:

- Choker Necklace: This type of necklace fits around the neck and is ideal for highlighting the delicate line of the neck. It usually measures between 35-40 cm in length.
- Princess Necklace: This necklace falls just above the collarbone and is one of the most versatile styles. Its length usually ranges between 40-45 cm.
- Matinee Necklace: This type of necklace is slightly longer than a princess necklace and typically measures between 50 and 60 cm. It sits on the neckline and is perfect for wearing with V-necks or open necklines.
- Opera Necklace: This is a long necklace that falls below the neckline and usually measures between 70 and 90 cm. It is ideal for formal occasions and for adding a touch of elegance to any outfit.
- Rope Necklace: This is the longest and most versatile necklace, with a length of over 90 cm. It can be worn in various ways, such as folded in layers or as a single long loop.
Pendant Size:
- When choosing a necklace with a charm or pendant, it's important to consider the size of the charm in relation to the necklace's length. Larger charms tend to stand out better on longer necklaces, while shorter necklaces are often ideal for smaller, more delicate charms or pendants.
For Men:

We also offer a variety of standard sizes designed for a perfect fit:
- Thin Collar (45 cm): Subtle and elegant, ideal for highlighting a refined style.
- Clavicle (50 cm): The most common option, suitable for most men.
- Below the Collarbone (55 cm): For those seeking an extra touch of distinction.
- Above the Sternum (60 cm): A bolder style that is sure to impress.
