Sterling Silver Flat Paperclip Chain Necklace

A chain is the piece you wear when you are not thinking about jewelry — which is why it should be the one you do not have to think about. This one is built to be worn every day and to hold whatever you hang on it later.

Solid 925 sterling silver in a paperclip link, with a flat edge rather than a rounded one. The flat face is the detail that matters: it catches light in a clean straight line and lies flush against the skin instead of rolling.

Choosing your width

4.3mm — the everyday width. Reads as a fine chain, layers easily under a collar, disappears when you want it to.

5.4mm — noticeably more substantial. Holds its own worn alone and carries a heavier pendant without looking overwhelmed.

Choosing your length

16" sits at the base of the neck. 18" falls at the collarbone, the most versatile length and the easiest to layer. 20" sits a touch below. 22" gives a longer, more relaxed drop and suits a pendant well.

• Metal: Solid 925 sterling silver

Care

Sterling silver develops a soft patina over time — a few seconds with a polishing cloth brings it back to full brightness. Keep it away from perfume and chlorine, and store it flat so the links do not twist.
