Tips on Choosing the Best Pendant Necklace

Choose the right length of chain: Deciding on the length of a necklace is an important decision.  The length of the necklace or chain determines where on the chest the pendant will lie.  We offer the length of any necklace to suit the style you are after.  The most popular length though, is 18 inches and is usually picked in cable, box or rope type chains.  If you have a personal chain preference we would be happy to provide the type of chain you'll most enjoy.

You definitely need a longer chain for heavier weight clothing and turtle neck sweaters.  It is a great idea to purchase multiple chains with each pendant for different necklines.  I personally recommend 2-3 different chains per pendant.short 14 - 16", medium (18") and then longer length still relating to how you will wear it.

A shorter chain will be great for slight scooped necks, sun dresses and summer attire.

With the purchase of multiple chains you are prepared for all fashion choices.

The Personal Fit

Now that you know the sizes of the necklaces and what looks good you must bear in mind that it will also zero down to where the pendant is going to rest.  We know the sizes of the necklaces but the individual size of every person wearing them is not known.  It is advisable to measure your own neckline.  Add two inches to it and then find the necklace that you like closest to that size.  If you wish to wear it above the neckline then you can subtract from the measurement.

Chain Clasps

Jewelry clasps are functional components used to securely connect two ends of a piece of jewelry.  Some clasps are basic, while others are bold, and an important part of the chain's design.

Spring Ring Clasps

A fairly popular clasp type is the spring ring clasp.  Spring rings work well on all types of designs.  The spring on the inner rim of the clasp allows opening and closing.  Spring Ring Clasps are commonly used to secure not only chains, but also bracelets and anklets.

Lobster Claw Clasps

Another popular clasp is the lobster claw, which has a more narrow profile and can be requested.  The shape is elongated oval compared to the round shape of the spring ring clasp.  It is all about personal taste and issues with manual dexterity.  If you have any arthritis in your hands then you will only want a lobster claw clasp.

Chain Types

There is a wide variety in types of chains used for pendants, such as box chain, curb chain, cable chain, figaro chain, rolo chain, rope chain and a host of others.  Among all these, cable chains are the most popular.

Budget Buys

For those on a budget the good news is that you could find a bargain with our bestseller sales and clearance section.  It is good to remember that you will have this for years.  You aren't buying it for one day or single occasions.  Think about buying it to own for life.

We strongly recommend the solitaire pendants, since they are classic.

At the end of the day you should feel stylish with the jewelry that you wear.  Sometimes your jewelry can be your very best friend---it always makes you feel good and will be there when you want to put a smile on your face.  Often the meaning of a piece of jewelry outweighs everything else.

Care of Your Pendant Necklace

Proper storage of your necklaces is important.  The simplest way of keeping your necklaces in proper condition is to keep them in the boxes they came in.  Do not pile one necklace upon another or keep them in such a way that they scrape up against each other.  The boxes are a means of protection for the metal and the gemstones.  It is not a good idea to have them piled up in one box or one jewelry box.  Ensure the boxes are lined so the necklace doesn't get scratched over time.  Don't store your chains where they are going to be bent.  This weakens the links.
