Moissanite Butterfly Shape Necklace | 101300404710150

How to Measure

Use these quick steps to find your perfect fit and understand the necklace dimensions.

1. Measure your neck:
   • Wrap a soft measuring tape around the base of your neck (or use a string and measure it against a ruler).
   • Add 2–4 inches (5–10 cm) to your neck measurement for your preferred drape:
     • +2 in: snug at the base of the neck.
     • +3 in: sits at the collarbone (classic look).
     • +4 in: just below the collarbone.
2. Choose chain length:
   • Common lengths: 16 in (40 cm) collarbone; 18 in (45 cm) below collarbone; 20–22 in (50–55 cm) décolletage.
   • If the necklace has an extender (often 2 in), your wearable range is “base length” to “base + extender”.
3. Understand pendant size and “drop”:
   • Pendant height is measured from the top of the bail (if visible) to the bottom of the butterfly; width is the wingspan.
   • To estimate where the butterfly will land: hold the chain length you want to the spot where the top of the pendant should sit, then add the pendant’s height to find the bottom point.
4. Layering guide:
   • For a tangle-free stack, keep about 1.5–2 in (4–5 cm) between each layer (e.g., 15 in + 17 in + 19 in).

Materials & Quality

• Stone: Moissanite (lab-grown silicon carbide, SiC) – engineered for exceptional sparkle and consistency.
• Durability: 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale for excellent scratch resistance suitable for daily wear.
• Brilliance & fire: High refractive index (approx. 2.65–2.69) and strong dispersion for vivid, colorful sparkle even in low light.
• Ethics: Lab‑grown and conflict‑free by design.
• Metal: Crafted in precious metal options commonly used for moissanite jewelry (e.g., 925 sterling silver with protective rhodium plating, gold vermeil, or solid gold). Please refer to the product options on this page for the exact metal of your selection.
• Setting & chain: Secure fine setting (often prong or pavé) on a comfortable everyday chain (typically cable or box); designed for skin‑friendly wear.

Design & Model Info

• Design story: The butterfly symbolizes transformation, freedom, and new beginnings—made to capture light and movement from every angle.
• Comfort details: Smooth back and rounded edges for snag‑free, all‑day wear; balanced bail so the pendant sits centered.
• Fit reference: Most collarbone looks are achieved at 16–18 in; choose 20–22 in for a lower, layering‑friendly drape.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Last on, first off: Put jewelry on after skincare, perfume, hairspray, and remove it before undressing.
• Avoid moisture & chemicals: Remove before showering, swimming, or cleaning. Chlorine and saltwater can dull finishes.
• Quick clean: Soak in lukewarm water with a drop of mild dish soap; gently brush behind the stone; rinse and pat dry with a lint‑free cloth.
• Plated pieces: Avoid ultrasonic, steam, or abrasive polishes. Clean gently to preserve rhodium or gold plating.
• Storage: Keep dry and separate in a pouch/box to prevent scratches and tangling.
• Checkups: Periodically inspect the clasp and prongs; if a stone feels loose, have a jeweler tighten it.

Style Tips

• Everyday glow: Let the butterfly shine solo with a scoop‑neck tee or blouse; pair with minimal studs or huggies.
• Layer it: Stack with a 14–15 in choker above and a 20–22 in chain below; keep ~2 in between lengths for balance.
• Dress‑up moments: Elevate with a tennis bracelet or pavé studs; V‑necklines mirror the butterfly’s silhouette.
• Metal mood: Silver‑tone for a cool, modern sparkle; gold‑tone for a warm, romantic look—match your daily rings/bracelets.
• Meaningful gift: A thoughtful symbol for milestones, birthdays, and new chapters.
