Find your necklace length
Where a chain sits depends on its length. Here is how each length falls on an average build.
| Length | Where it sits | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 46 cm (18") | Base of the neck | Choker look · layering base |
| 51 cm (20") | On the collarbone | Most popular · everyday |
| 56 cm (22") | Top of the chest | Versatile · with a pendant |
| 61 cm (24") | Mid-chest | Statement · pendant-friendly |
Layering tip: pick two lengths 5–10 cm apart so each chain sits on its own.

A flat snake chain that sits smoothly against the collarbone. Its tightly woven links create a solid, liquid-metal surface. Wear it alone for a clean look or as a base for a pendant.
- Material. Made from stainless steel with a polished silver-tone or gold-tone plated finish.
- Width & Length. Offered in 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, and 5mm widths, with necklace lengths from 16 to 24 inches.
- Design. Tightly interlocked plates form a flexible, herringbone-like pattern that lies flat against the skin.
- Daily Wear. Built for daily wear; everyday splashes are fine, but remove it for swimming or training.
Finding your fit
The 2mm and 3mm widths offer a subtle line of metal. The 4mm and 5mm versions are more substantial and visible under a collar. A 20-inch chain typically rests on the collarbone for most men.
The details+
The snake chain is constructed from small plates tightly joined together. This creates a continuous, smooth surface that reflects light uniformly, resembling liquid metal. It's flexible and moves fluidly, conforming to the line of your neck and collarbone.
Wear it on its own against the skin or over a t-shirt. For a layered look, pair the thinner widths with a heavier chain, or match it with the corresponding bracelet for a complete set.

Questions+
Will it turn my skin green or fade?
Made from stainless steel, which does not rust and will not turn skin green. The plating keeps its colour best when kept away from perfume, chlorine, and salt water.
Can I wear it in the shower or at the gym?
Everyday splashes are fine. We recommend you take it off to swim, train, or shower to best preserve the finish.
