Gold-Plated Bubble Initial Necklace | Style K / One Size 100500228621305

How to Measure

Use a soft tape measure or a piece of string and a ruler. Measurements for necklaces are typically taken as follows:

• Chain length: Measure end-to-end from clasp to ring. This usually excludes the pendant.
• Drop length: Divide the chain length by two to estimate how low it will sit from the back of the neck to the pendant’s top.
• Pendant height: Measure from the top of the bail (the loop) to the bottom of the initial. Some brands list the letter height only—check which is used.
• Pendant width: Measure at the widest point of the initial.
• Extender length: If there is an extender, measure just that short extra chain (e.g., 2 in / 5 cm).
• Chain thickness: Measure the width of the chain with a ruler or caliper (e.g., 1–2 mm).

Choosing your length:

• Choker fit: 14–15 in (35–38 cm).
• At the collarbone: 16–18 in (40–46 cm) — most popular for everyday wear.
• Below collarbone: 20–22 in (50–56 cm) — better over higher necklines.

Tip: Wrap a string where you want the necklace to sit, mark it, then measure that length to pick your ideal size. If your piece has an extender, you’ll have flexibility across several lengths.

Materials & Finish

This necklace features a luminous gold-plated finish with a rounded “bubble” initial charm on a delicate chain—designed for everyday shine.

• Finish: Gold-plated (a thin layer of gold bonded to a durable base metal).
• Charm: High-polish, smooth, rounded bubble letter for a playful, dimensional look.
• Chain: Fine cable-style chain with a secure clasp (lobster or spring ring, depending on batch).
• Plating note: Gold plating offers the look of solid gold at a lighter weight and price. Longevity depends on thickness, skin chemistry, and care.

What “gold-plated” means: A microscopic layer of real gold is applied over a base metal (often brass, sterling silver, or stainless steel). Typical fashion-jewelry plating ranges around 0.3–1.0 microns, sometimes sealed with a clear protective coating to help resist wear.

Model Information

• Model A: 175 cm (5'9"), neck circumference 33 cm (13"). Wearing an 16–18 in chain length; necklace sits at the collarbone.
• Model B: 163 cm (5'4"), neck circumference 36.5 cm (14.4"). Wearing an 18 in chain length; necklace sits just below the collarbone.
• Visual guide: On most necks, 16 in is a true collarbone length, 18 in drops slightly below, and 20–22 in adds extra drape for layering.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Last on, first off: Put your necklace on after perfume, hair spray, lotion, and sunscreen to reduce contact with chemicals.
• Avoid water and sweat: Remove before swimming, showering, or exercising. Chlorine, saltwater, and sweat can dull plating.
• Gentle cleaning: Wipe with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth after each wear. If needed, use a little mild soap with lukewarm water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.
• Skip harsh cleaners: No jewelry dips, ultrasonic cleaners, or abrasive polishes on plated pieces.
• Store smart: Keep in a soft pouch or box, away from humidity and other jewelry to prevent scratches. Anti-tarnish tabs can help.
• Rotate wear: Give your necklace a rest between wears to reduce friction on the plating. Re-plating is possible over time if needed.

Style Tips

• Signature touch: Choose your own initial or a loved one’s for a subtle personal statement.
• Layering: Pair the bubble initial with a shorter choker and a longer pendant (16" + 18" + 20") for a balanced stack.
• Mix textures: Combine with a paperclip or rope chain for contrast against the smooth bubble charm.
• Necklines: Crew and boat necks highlight a 16–18" length; V-necks and button-downs pair well with 18–20".
• Everyday set: Match with minimal huggies or studs and a slim bracelet for an effortless, coordinated look.
• Gift-ready: An easy, meaningful present for birthdays, bridal parties, and graduations.
