Chain Length Guide

Choosing Your Chain Length

Most Aurilyn chains are 45 cm (18 inches) — the most versatile length, sitting just below the collarbone on most people. Here's how the common lengths wear:

Length Where it sits Best for
40 cm (16") Base of the neck Chokers, high necklines, layering base
45 cm (18") Just below the collarbone Pendants, everyday wear — our standard
50 cm (20") Above the bust Longer layering, lower necklines

Layering tip

For the classic layered look, pair chains 5 cm apart — for example a 40 cm snake chain with a 45 cm pendant chain. Each pearl or pendant gets its own space.

Pendant pairing

All Aurilyn pendants fit our chains. If you're buying a pendant-only piece, add any chain from our Necklaces collection — the 45 cm cable or box chain suits nearly everything.
