Factors to Consider When Choosing a Chain

 

1. Purpose

• Are you looking for an everyday piece, a bold statement, or something to pair with a pendant? The purpose of the chain will influence your choice of style, length, and thickness.

2. Length

• Short chains (16–18 inches) sit near the collarbone and are ideal for showcasing pendants or creating a choker effect.

• Medium chains (20–24 inches) offer a versatile length that works for most outfits.

• Long chains (over 24 inches) create a dramatic look, especially when layered.

3. Material

• Frozen Gold offers chains in gold vermeil, solid gold (14K, 18K), and sterling silver to suit different budgets and preferences. Choose a material that matches your style and complements your existing jewellery.

4. Thickness

• Thicker chains, like Cuban links, make a bold statement, while thinner chains, like tennis or rope styles, offer a more delicate, refined look.

5. Budget

• Our gold vermeil chains provide affordable luxury with durability, while solid gold chains are perfect for those seeking a long-term investment piece.
