Snake chain is the jeweler's name for this style: small plates joined so tightly that the chain looks like one smooth, flexible cord. It lies flat against the skin and slides easily through the loop of a medal. Four widths let you match it to the pendant, from 0.9 mm for a small cross to 2 mm for a larger medal. Three lengths, 45, 50 and 55 cm, set where it falls. The finish is gold tone over stainless steel, with a lobster clasp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSo the medal they left you can be worn again\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant your grandfather left you was sleeping in a drawer.

Then choose 45 cm (just below the collarbone), 50 cm (upper chest) or 55 cm (mid-chest). The gold-tone snake chain lies flat and shines on bare skin, alone or layered with a second chain at least 5 cm longer. The stainless steel can stay on in the shower. Avoid folding it sharply or knotting it: snake chains can kink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions and answers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich width should I choose for my pendant?\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 or 1.2 mm for a small, light cross; 1.5 mm for a medium medal; 2 mm for a larger medal or to wear the chain on its own.
