The 3 Types of the Most Popular Featured Chain Necklaces

Chain necklaces are everywhere these days, but they aren’t all the same. We’ve seen three types of chain necklaces adorn the necks here in NYC: large and small loops, mariner link, and snake. Here comes the fun part, finding the style that speaks to your soul.

Statement necklaces are best suited for loops of different sizes as they allow for a wider range of styles. To make the most impact, choose chains with clearly defined dimensions in their links.

The mariner-style necklace is more timeless and elegant. You can wear this necklace for many decades, so it’s worth getting a quality chain made from gold or silver.

The snake chain is the final option. We recommend that you start with this snake chain if you are just starting out in the chain world. Flat-lay styles can be worn every day without adding bulk to an outfit.

Are you ready to jump? We have a variety of these chains in varying price ranges. We are confident that you will find the right item for you, whether you are looking to buy an everyday item or if you prefer to get into the trend with less expensive pieces.
