This page mixes three kinds of necklace. Some are chains worn on their own, such as fine hayseed and six-sided open curb chains in 9ct gold. Others are pendants, including greenstone (pounamu) pendants and Tongan and Samoan sila pendants with engraved black enamel. A third group has stones built into the chain, like paperclip links set with cubic zirconia.
When you choose a pendant, check the listing to see whether a chain is included. If not, match the chain to the pendant: a fine chain suits a small pendant, and a heavier link suits a large one.
The metal is mostly 9ct yellow gold or sterling silver, with a few stainless steel pieces. Many styles suit men, women and children.
See chain-only styles in chains, or a wider range in necklaces and pendants.
