Mittaa kotona 2 minuutissa
Tarvitset paperisuikaleen (tai narun tai kengännauhan), kynän ja viivoittimen.
- Ota naru tai kengännauha ja merkitse siihen harkitsemasi pituus, esimerkiksi 50 cm.
- Pidä merkit yhdessä niskan takana, päälläsi sellainen paita, jota yleensä käytät.
- Katso peiliin: narun alin kohta on se, mihin ketju asettuu.
- Liian ylhäällä tai alhaalla? Kokeile 5 cm enemmän tai vähemmän: se on yksi koko isompi tai pienempi.
Onko sinulla jo ketju, josta pidät? Aseta se tasaiselle alustalle lukko kiinni ja mittaa se päästä päähän. Leveällä kaulalla tai rintakehällä jokainen pituus asettuu hieman ylemmäs.
Eikö viivoitinta löydy? Pankkikortti on 8,6 cm pitkä: laske, montako mahtuu suikaleen pituudelle.
Still unsure? Ask us, a real person replies within 24 hours.

How to wear it
The slim plaque is 25 mm tall and hangs on a 43 cm clip chain with a 5 cm extender, so it sits close to the collarbone. It is the kind of small medallion that works alone with a blouse or a simple knit, or layered with a longer necklace she already wears every day.
The toggle clasp closes easily, and the stainless steel can stay on in the shower. Silver suits cool tones, gold tone warmer ones. It is a lovely confirmation gift from a godmother to her goddaughter, or a Mother's Day or Christmas present.
Questions
What does the beaded border around the Gilded Mark recall?
Old devotional medals. The cross is raised on a 25 mm rectangular plaque framed by a fine beaded edge, so it keeps the cross close to the heart without a large pendant.
Can the toggle clasp of the Gilded Mark be worn at the front?
Yes. On the clip chain the toggle, a bar that slips through a ring, is part of the design, so you can turn it to the front beside the plaque. The chain is 43 cm with a 5 cm extender.
Does it layer well with other necklaces?
Yes. It is short enough to be the first layer; add a chain about 5 cm longer, or a small pendant, below it.
Is it a good confirmation gift from a godmother?
Yes. It is discreet enough for a teenager to wear every day, and the cross keeps it meaningful.
Will it tarnish or turn my skin green?
No. It is stainless steel, which does not rust or turn skin green, even with daily wear.
Is it OK to wear a cross as jewelry?
Yes, as long as it is worn with respect for what it means. A small cross medallion like this is a quiet, personal sign of faith.
Gold cross chain for women with an extender
An extender helps when the same necklace has to work under a collar and over a dress. It is also a kindness if you are buying for someone without knowing her neck size. The Crowned Cross is 45 cm with a 5 cm extender, with small stones that catch the light. The Reverent Tag is 43 cm plus 5, with a toggle clasp. The Devotion Cross is 45 cm plus 5, on a curb chain. All are gold-tone stainless steel.
Confirmation is coming up for my goddaughter and I've been her godmother since the day she was born. She's 15, very sweet. What do I write and what do I give?
Fifteen years of praying for someone from the day she was born makes this your day too, even if no one mentions it. The Gilded Mark is a raised cross on a small plaque with a beaded border, like old devotional medals, chosen for exactly this day. You've prayed for her since the beginning, and a cross close to her heart says so. Fasten it on her that morning. For the card: I held you the day you were baptized and said yes for you. Today you say it yourself. I've never been prouder. I'll keep praying. Then tell her one story she doesn't know about her baptism. More for this day: Confirmation Gifts

Its meaning
A cross shaped like an old medal
Catholics have worn small devotional medals for centuries, usually a stamped image on a disc or a plaque, kept close on a chain.
Most carry a saint or a scene from the Gospels; some carry only the cross. This pendant follows that old format in a slimmer shape: a rectangular plaque with a fine beaded border and a cross at its center. It sits flat against the chest instead of hanging away from it. The clip chain and toggle clasp give it a modern look. Polished stainless steel, in silver or gold.
Giving it as a gift
For a confirmation, from a godmother to her goddaughter. It also works for Mother's Day, and layers well with a necklace she already wears every day.
