Frequently Asked Questions
What is a snake chain?
A snake chain is made of small round or square metal plates or rings linked together so tightly that the surface appears completely smooth, like a snake's skin. It is highly flexible and has a distinctive liquid 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, delivering excellent durability despite its fine 1mm width.
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 1mm snake chain virtually disappears under a pendant, making the pendant the true star. Layer two or three snake chains of different lengths for an ultra-minimal, modern look. A must-have foundation chain for any jewellery wardrobe.
