Black Necklace For Men

Black necklaces for men: medallions, symbols and plain black chains

A black necklace is the understated choice in men's jewelry. It does not shine like polished steel, so it reads as a shape rather than a flash, and it fits easily into a dark, casual wardrobe. This collection brings together every necklace we offer in black. Crosses make up a large part of it and have their own guide: see our black cross necklaces. Here we focus on the rest: black medallions and symbols, and plain black chains.

All of these necklaces are steel (titanium steel or stainless steel); the black finish is a plating on the steel.

Black necklaces other than the cross

Choosing a black pendant

A symbol

The Arrowhead Pendant Necklace is an angular, graphic piece with sharp edges and V-shaped engraved lines. It sits centered on the upper chest on its 60 cm chain.

A medal of faith

The Saint Michael medallion shows the traditional figure of the saint with an inscription around the edge. In black, the relief reads clearly without reflections.

Black with a bright pendant

The Compass Pendant Rope Chain Necklace can be ordered with an extra black rope chain. A silver-tone or gold-tone compass on black is the most contrasted look in this collection.

Plain black chains

If you prefer no pendant, a black chain on its own is a clean, modern accent. The black Cuban chain is the everyday option, from 4 mm; the black Franco chain is bolder and also the strongest base if you add a heavy pendant later. For widths, lengths and how to style them, see our men's black chains.

What to wear with a black necklace

Black stands out on white, gray, sand and light blue. On a black t-shirt, it becomes tone-on-tone and only the shape shows. It pairs easily with a black watch, a black bracelet or dark leather.

Caring for black plating

You can keep your necklace on in the shower, at the gym, at the sea or in the pool. Rinse in clean water after the sea or the pool and dry it. Perfume, chlorine and friction wear black plating over time, first on raised edges. Each necklace has a 1-year warranty against defects, 30-day returns and free shipping over $60.
