If a little black dress were a jewelry piece, it'd be this dainty chain — delicate, shimmering and understated enough to wear 24/7.


Opt for a dainty gold or silver chain, then add on a few personalized tags or charms to make your stack uniquely yours!


Each chain is handcrafted in our studio and available in top-quality 14k gold fill, sterling silver, rose gold fill, 14k solid gold and 10k solid gold.

Materials
14k Gold Filled
Ease of care: 4/5

A practical balance between cost and quality, our gold-filled pieces have a thick layer of 14k gold, heat and pressure bonded to a high-quality brass core. They contain much more real gold than regular gold-plating.

Sterling Silver
Ease of care: 4/5

Solid, precious metal that lasts forever. It darkens with time, but can be polished up. Oils from your skin help prevent silver tarnish... so wear it often!

14k Rose Gold Filled
Ease of care: 3/5

Extremely similar to yellow gold-filled, rose gold has a bit of copper added to the alloy to give it a rosy hue.

14k Solid Gold
Ease of care: 5/5

A low maintenance, fine jewelry favorite that will last forever. It’s pure gold mixed with other alloys to make it more durable & give it a beautiful hue.

10k Solid Gold
Ease of care: 5/5

More durable, scratch-resistant and affordable than its 14k counterpart, 10k solid gold offers a softer, subtler tone—ideal for those who prefer a less intense yellow.

Sizing Guide
  1. Find a tool to use (string, dental floss, headphone cord, measuring tape if you have it).
  2. Find the length by wrapping it around your neck and marking it (for pendants, imagine the jewelry lower, for suspended, it should be in line).
  3. Check the length against a ruler or lay it out flat and measure with a phone app.

Alternatively: Measure an existing necklace end to end with a ruler (most accurate) or a phone app (great if you don’t have a ruler handy).

Any and all! We love adding a tiny charm to our dainty chains, as well as our heart pendants, oval pendants, disk pendants and tag pendants. See all of our available charms and pendants here! 

The key to layering necklace chains is texture and contrast. Since you’re starting with a dainty cable chain, we recommend adding on a chunkier, shorter chain for contrast, or choosing another delicate chain with a different texture. Don’t forget to vary the lengths, too! In general, keep your bolder chains at a shorter length with your daintier necklaces at a longer length—we find this looks more harmonious and balanced.

    I've been wearing this necklace daily since 2020 (maybe even earlier) when it finally broke. It is quite a delicate chain but mine only broke because it got caught in my sweatshirt neckline (I didn't notice) and when I pulled the neckline down, down came my chain. I immediately re-ordered it as it is quite the perfect chain and I love having the ability to make it a bit longer.

    Beautiful

    Dainty and so elegant. I got one for myself and one in a custom size for my 2 year olds first piece of gold jewelry and I’m very excited for her to get in it her stocking Christmas morning, she LOVES necklaces.
