Measure at home in 2 minutes
You need a strip of paper (or a string or shoelace), a pen and a ruler.
- Take a string or a shoelace and mark on it the length you are considering, for example 20".
- Hold the two marks together at the back of your neck, wearing the kind of top you usually wear.
- Look in a mirror: the lowest point of the string is where the chain will sit.
- Too high or too low? Try 2" more or less: that is one size up or down.
Already own a chain you like? Lay it flat, clasp closed, and measure it end to end. A broad neck or chest makes every length sit a little higher.
No ruler? A bank card is 3.4" long: count how many fit along your strip.

How to wear it
This is a ready-made layered necklace with two strands: a short one at 40 cm, which sits at the base of the neck, and a long one at 70 cm, which falls low on the chest. Together they carry simulated pearls, a small cross and a 15 x 20 mm coin medal, a vintage look that suits a plain sweater, a blouse or a simple dress.
The gold-tone stainless steel holds up to daily wear, but keep the pearls away from water and perfume to protect their luster. At 23 g it has a pleasant weight. It is a lovely Mother's Day or Christmas gift.
Questions
How long are the two layers?
40 cm (about 16 in) and 70 cm (about 28 in), joined in one piece with a lobster clasp and an extender.
Does the coin medal show a saint?
No. The coin is decorative; the cross is what gives the necklace its Christian meaning.
Does The Devout Layers feel heavy with its pearls and coin?
You will feel it: the necklace weighs 23 g. The weight is shared between the 40 cm and 70 cm strands, so neither one pulls.
Will the two strands tangle?
They are joined as one necklace, so they sit in the same order each time. Store it flat in its gift box between wears.
Will the gold plating of The Devout Layers survive daily wear?
Yes, with care. The steel underneath does not rust, but the plating and the simulated pearls both last longest away from shower water, perfume and lotion.
Is The Devout Layers a good gift for a mom who loves vintage jewelry?
Yes. Two strands of pearls, a small cross and a 15 x 20 mm coin medal give her a vintage layered look in one clasp.

Its meaning
A coin, a cross and a choice
When Jesus was handed a Roman coin and asked about paying tax, he looked at the image stamped on it and answered: render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's. For Christians, that answer is about where first loyalty lies. A necklace that layers a coin beside a cross recalls that choice, even though the coin here is decorative rather than a saint's medal. Two strands of simulated pearls carry a small cross and a round coin pendant, worn as one piece. The finish is gold, with...
Giving it as a gift
For Mother's Day, it suits a mom with a taste for vintage jewelry, and at Christmas, a sister or a friend. It suits women who enjoy layered looks without having to build them.
