Men's gold chain necklaces: plain chain or chain with a pendant?
This page shows all our gold-tone necklaces together: the plain chains and the necklaces that come with a pendant. Every piece is stainless steel or titanium steel with gold-tone plating, so gold here means the color. The real choice is not the link first, it is the neckline you wear most. A gold chain necklace that looks right over a crewneck can look lost with a buttoned collar, and the reverse.
Plain chain or pendant necklace
- A plain chain is the detail itself. It works best when you want texture and shine at the collarbone: a Cuban, a rope or a figaro. See our gold-tone chains for widths.
- A pendant necklace puts a point of focus on the chest, a cross, a medallion or a compass. It suits a crewneck or an open shirt, and a longer chain. See our gold pendant chains.
Choose by neckline
| You wear | Best necklace | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Crewneck T-shirt | A 4 to 8 mm plain chain over the fabric, or a pendant on 60 cm | 20" to 24" |
| Open-collar shirt | A 3 mm figaro or wheat, or a medium cross on 50 to 55 cm | 20" to 22" |
| Buttoned shirt, office | A thin, flat chain under the shirt: box, flat snake, 3 mm figaro | 20" |
| Knit or sweater | A wide Cuban, Franco or Byzantine over the knit | 22" to 24" |
A few strong picks
- Figaro Link Chain Necklace: 3 to 6 mm, 16" to 26". Flat enough for a shirt.
- Rope Chain Necklace: 3, 4 or 5 mm, 20" to 26". Twisted links that catch the light over a T-shirt.
- Textured Cross Pendant Necklace: a 55 x 27 mm openwork cross on a 60 cm wheat chain, for the chest.
- Compass Pendant Necklace: a compass medallion or an open compass rose, with an optional extra rope chain.
Wearing two at once
A plain chain and a pendant necklace can be worn together. Keep about 2 inches (5 cm) between them, for example a 20" chain with a pendant on 24" (about 60 cm), and keep the same gold tone. Let one of the two be thin.
Keeping the gold tone
Water is not a problem: shower, sea and pool are fine. Rinse the necklace in fresh water after salt or chlorine and dry it. Perfume and friction are what wear plating, so spray cologne before putting it on and avoid abrasive cloths.
FAQ
Are these necklaces made of gold?
No. They are stainless steel or titanium steel with gold-tone plating.
Should a gold chain be worn under or over the shirt?
Over a T-shirt or a knit, it is meant to be seen. With a buttoned shirt, a thin chain under the fabric stays discreet.
What is the most versatile gold chain necklace?
A 4 mm plain chain in 20". It works under a shirt and over a T-shirt.
What are your guarantees?
30-day returns, a 1-year warranty against defects, and free shipping over $60.
