Frequently Asked Questions
What is a snake chain?
A snake chain is made of small round or square metal plates linked so tightly the surface appears completely smooth, like a snake's skin. It is highly flexible with a distinctive fluid drape.
What length sterling silver chain should I buy?
16" sits at the collarbone, 18" is the most popular all-purpose length, 20"–22" falls at the chest, and 24"+ creates a long layered look.
Is this chain solid sterling silver?
Yes — solid .925 sterling silver throughout.
How do I care for a sterling silver chain?
Store in a dry, airtight pouch when not wearing. Clean with a soft silver polishing cloth. Avoid contact with chlorine, perfume, and lotions.
Styling Tips
The 1.2mm snake chain is a step up from the 1mm — slightly more visible on its own while still being fine enough for delicate pendants. Layer with bolder chains or wear alone as an understated everyday necklace.
