Copper 14K Gold-Plated Pendant Necklace | Dark Green / One Size 101300395851602

How to Measure

Use a soft measuring tape or a string and ruler. Record your measurements so you can compare with your favorite pieces.

• Chain length:
  • Wrap a measuring tape around your neck where you want the necklace to sit and note the number.
  • No tape? Wrap a string, mark the point where it meets, then measure the string with a ruler.
  • To match a favorite necklace, lay it flat, fasten the clasp, and measure end to end.
• Pendant size:
  • Height: measure from the top of the bail (loop) to the bottom tip of the pendant.
  • Width: measure the widest point across the pendant.
  • Thickness: measure the side profile at the thickest point.
  • Bail opening: measure the inner height/width to ensure it fits your chains (if the pendant is removable).
• Drop length (on-body): Fasten the necklace and measure from the back of the neck at the clasp to the bottom of the pendant.
• Chain thickness: If you don’t have calipers, compare to a coin edge or ruler; most everyday chains are about 1–2 mm.
• Length guide (where it typically sits):
  • 14 in: choker, high on the neck
  • 16 in: base of neck
  • 18 in: just below collarbone (most popular)
  • 20–22 in: upper chest, layers well over tees/knits
  • 24–30 in: mid to lower chest, great for statement layering
• Tip: If your necklace includes an extender, the total wearable range is the base length plus the extender (for example, 16–18 in).

Materials & Composition

• Base metal: Copper
  • Durable and lightweight with a warm undertone.
  • May naturally patina over time if the plating wears; a clear polish cloth can help keep exposed copper bright.
• Plating: 14K Gold
  • 14K denotes an alloy that is 58.5% pure gold, offering a classic, softly warm yellow tone.
  • Gold plating provides the look of solid gold at a lighter weight and cost. Longevity depends on thickness and care.
  • Color may vary slightly under different lighting or screens.
• Allergy & sensitivity notes
  • Gold plating can reduce direct contact with the base metal, but does not guarantee compatibility for all skin sensitivities.
  • If you are sensitive to base metals (including copper) or to nickel, consider minimizing prolonged moisture/sweat exposure and monitor for wear. Choose solid gold or surgical-grade metals for maximal compatibility.
• Care impact: Proper storage and gentle handling significantly extend the life of gold plating.

Note: Specific plating thickness and clasp materials vary by batch and vendor. Refer to the product specifications if available.

Model & Fit Notes

• On most necks, a 16 in chain rests at the base of the neck; 18 in falls just below the collarbone, showcasing the pendant; 20–22 in works well over crewneck tops.
• Pendant size influences the visual “drop” — taller pendants appear longer than shorter charms on the same chain length.
• For layering, choose chain lengths spaced by 2–4 inches (e.g., 16 in + 18 in + 20 in) so each piece sits distinctly.
• If you prefer a true choker fit, measure snugly and add 0.5–1 in for comfort.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Last on, first off: put jewelry on after skincare, perfume, and hairspray have fully dried.
• Avoid water and chemicals: remove before showering, swimming, exercising, or cleaning.
• Wipe after wear: use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to remove oils and sweat.
• Store smart: keep in a dry pouch or box, ideally in an individual zip bag to reduce friction and tarnish; avoid humid areas like bathrooms.
• No harsh cleaners: skip dips or abrasives; use gentle jewelry soap and lukewarm water only if needed, then dry completely.
• Minimize friction: don’t nestle pieces together; keep chains clasped to prevent tangling and micro-scratches.
• Keep away from lotions, sunscreen, and sanitizer, which can accelerate wear on gold plating.
• Professional refresh: if plating shows wear, a jeweler can re-polish and re-plate.

Style Tips

• Everyday minimal: Wear solo on an 16–18 in chain for a clean, polished look with tees, blouses, or slip dresses.
• Layered set: Pair with a delicate choker and a longer 20–22 in chain for depth. Mix chain textures (cable, box, herringbone) for contrast.
• Neckline match: V-necks and wrap tops highlight a pendant at 18 in; crewnecks often suit 20 in and longer.
• Mixed metals: Combine with sterling or white-toned pieces for a modern, intentional mix; echo the gold with matching hoops or a cuff.
• Occasion upgrade: Add fine sparkle studs or a slim tennis bracelet to shift from daytime to evening.
• Gift-ready: Choose a versatile mid-length chain (18 in) for most recipients and add a small extender for flexibility.
