Women's Chain Necklaces
FAQs
What is a chain necklace?
A chain necklace is exactly what it sounds like, a necklace made entirely of metal links connected together, without a pendant or charm as its main feature. The chain itself is the design. What makes one chain different from another is the shape and size of the links, which is where styles like cuban, paperclip, mariner, barrel, and bold link come in.
Chain necklaces are typically made with durable metals built to last, and ours are crafted in 925 sterling silver, 18k gold-plated stainless steel, or silver-plated stainless steel, depending on the design. Every material we use is chosen for durability and everyday wear, so your chain can keep up with real life.

How do I store chain necklaces?
The biggest enemy of any chain is tangling, so storage matters more than people think. The best way to keep your chains in perfect condition is to store them flat and separated, ideally in the pouch your order came in or in individual compartments of a jewelry box.
If you're storing more than one chain together, lay them flat instead of piling them up, this prevents the links from catching on each other and getting knotted. For longer chains, you can also clasp them closed and lay them in a straight line, which keeps them ready to wear without any untangling drama.

How do I clean chain necklaces?
Keeping your chain necklace looking new is easier than you think. For everyday cleaning, all you need is a soft jewelry cloth, gently wipe down the chain after each wear to remove any oils, sweat, or product buildup that might dull the finish over time.
For a deeper clean, you can soak the chain in warm water with a tiny drop of mild dish soap for a few minutes, then gently brush between the links with a soft toothbrush to get into all the small spaces. A few minutes of care every now and then is all it takes to keep your chain looking exactly the way it did the day you got it.

How do I choose the right chain necklace length?
Length is everything when it comes to chain necklaces, because it changes how the piece sits and how it pairs with the rest of your outfit. Our chains range from 16.5" to 21", which covers the most popular and flattering lengths for everyday wear.
Not sure which is right for you? Check our necklace size chart to see exactly where each length sits before you order.
- A shorter chain (16.5" to 17") sits high on the collarbone and pairs perfectly with crew necks or as a top layer.
- A mid-length chain (18" to 19") falls just below the collarbone and is the most universally flattering, the one most people reach for first.
- A longer chain (20" to 21") hits closer to the chest, perfect for V-necks or layering shorter chains on top.
