Description
Smokey purple glass beads on black-tone metal make this faceted graduated bead necklace a dark, moody vintage piece. The metal carries a black ruthenium plating that gives the purple a deep, even backdrop. Each bead is cut with facets that flash in the light, and the graduated sizes give the strand a gentle, tapered line. A lobster clasp closes the fancy chain, and an extender lets you adjust where it sits. Wear it with a black dress or a gray knit and let the purple do the talking. A good pick for a graduate, or for anyone drawn to vintage style.

How do I choose between curb, Figaro, rope and box chains?
Pick by look: curb is bold, box is smooth, rope is textured. Curb links lie flat and read casual. Figaro adds a longer link between short ones. Rope and cable chains catch light, and box chains suit a pendant. Franco and Spiga offer other textures.
What affects the price of necklaces and chains?
Metal, width, length and stones set the price. Karat matters (10K, 14K), as does solid versus gold-filled, and sterling silver, stainless steel and titanium sit differently. Thicker, longer chains use more metal, and diamonds or pearls add to the cost. Use the Price filter on this page to set a budget.
Which necklace and chain styles are most popular?
Stainless steel fleur-de-lis necklaces and orchid necklaces lead the list. Close behind are curb chains in titanium, sterling silver Forzantine and ball chains, and cross necklaces. Gold cable, Figaro and Franco chains also show up among the favorites.
What chain width should I choose?
Choose fine widths for pendants and wider ones for wearing alone. Chains around 0.5mm to 1.5mm suit a pendant or layering. Widths from 3.5mm to 10mm, as in the titanium curb chains, make a statement on their own. Each listing gives the width in millimeters.
What length necklace should I wear?
16 to 18 inches sits at the collarbone, and 20 to 24 falls lower. Many chains here come in a range of lengths, so you can pick one on the listing. Longer lengths suit open collars and layering, while shorter ones sit neatly with a pendant.
Can I wear a chain every day?
Yes, choose a metal that suits daily wear. Stainless steel and titanium are common here for everyday pieces, as are sterling silver and 14K gold. Take it off for swimming and heavy workouts to protect the links. See our jewelry care tips.
How do I layer necklaces without tangling?
Vary the lengths by about two inches and the chain textures. Pair a fine chain with a slightly bolder link, and add a pendant to only one layer. Fine chains gathered in The Layering Edit are made to be worn together. Fasten the clasps separately.
How should I store a necklace so it doesn't tangle?
Store each necklace separately and fastened. Hang it or lay it flat in a soft pouch or lined box. Keep sterling silver away from air and moisture to slow tarnish, and wipe any chain with a soft cloth after wearing.
