How to Style

14" — Choker

Sits close around the neck. Wear it solo for a clean, classic look or layer with longer chains to build a striking stack.

16" — Short

Falls at the base of the neck. A timeless everyday length and the perfect starting point for your necklace collection.

18" — Medium

Rests just below the collarbone. Ideal for showcasing pendants or pairing with shorter and longer layers.

20"–24" — Long

Lays above the chest. Works beautifully with open necklines, layering stacks, or personalised pendants.

26"+ — Statement

Drapes to the waist or lower. Made for bold styling — wear as-is, knotted, or looped for a dramatic effect.
