Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best length for a first necklace?

An 18-inch chain is often ideal for beginners as it sits nicely on most body types, works with various necklines, and feels comfortable for all-day wear. If you're unsure, measure from your collarbone to where you'd like the necklace to sit.

How do I prevent tarnishing and maintain my necklace?

Store necklaces in a dry place, ideally in individual pouches or compartments to prevent tangling and scratching. Avoid exposure to lotions, perfumes, and moisture when possible, and gently clean with appropriate jewelry cleaning cloths as needed.

Can I layer entry-level necklaces?

Yes, many entry-level pieces work well for layering. Start with different lengths (try combining 16-inch and 20-inch pieces) and vary the thickness or style. Keep the overall look balanced by mixing simple and slightly more detailed pieces.

What if I have sensitive skin?

Look for hypoallergenic options like surgical stainless steel or pieces specifically labeled as nickel-free. Avoid very inexpensive metals that may contain irritating alloys, and consider applying clear nail polish to chain links that touch your skin if you experience minor reactions.
