Chain length and style
16 inches sits at the collarbone, 18 inches is the most popular length and pairs with most necklines, 20 inches rests below the collarbone, 22-24 inches is statement length. Cable chains (round links) are classic and strong. Rope chains offer visual texture. Paperclip chains are modern and architectural. Match the chain thickness to the pendant weight, a delicate pendant on a thick chain reads imbalanced.
