Measuring
The measurements of all of our jewelry pieces include the clasps and any small connector rings. We carefully review these measurements before cutting any chain, to ensure that you get exactly the length that you requested. A piece may be slightly longer (but never shorter) due to the size of the chain links.
If not already attached to the piece, an extender chain of 2" / 5 cm can be added without charge. Please make a note in the comments section at checkout that you would like an extender added, if one is not already included.
The image shows differing lengths of necklaces on the body. Each person is different, so the chart is for reference only. Use a measuring tape to gauge where the necklace will be on you.
