Sterling silver Chain

How to Choose the Right Snake Chain for Your Pendant?

Choosing the right chain for your pendant could be a difficult task. There are many things that must be kept in mind before buying a chain for such purpose. For example, its length, thickness, strength, and color could be some of the important factors. One of the most common and favorite choices of people worldwide is a snake chain. Usually, people prefer to buy beautiful and delicate snake chains for their pendants. Here are a few things that you must consider before buying a chain.
Quality of Metal
Snake chains can be found in various metals such as gold, silver, copper, bronze, etc. You must choose the appropriate metal for the chain depending upon the material used in the pendant, its color and most importantly the response of your body to the metal. There might be some metals that can lead to allergy or any other skin reactions. Mostly people prefer to go for sterling silver snake chains as their bright color tends to accentuate the beauty of the pendant and they are mostly harmless for the skin.
Weight
Another important factor to look for is the weight of the chain. If your pendant is very light then a delicate chain would be the best option, but if your pendant is heavy and bold then you must buy a chain heavy enough to carry the weight of the pendant.
Thickness
It is believed that the thickness of the chain is directly proportional to the weight of the pendant. If the pendant is light then the thickness of the chain could be very less as compared to the one carrying a heavy pendant.
Color
Snake chains are available in many colors of metals. The color of the pendant must help you in deciding the color of the chain. While with most of the metal pendants, sterling silver chains would go perfectly but, for other pendants you can choose from a wide variety of options at hand.
Snake chains can add beauty and grace to your pendant. Their intricate designs, colors and length can make any outfit look glamorous and trendy. Where short and delicate snake chains give an utterly graceful and sophisticated appearance long and bold snake chains, on the other hands, give an equally urban and young look. You can team up these chains with small or big pendants depending upon your style, preference, personality and the occasion without worrying about looking old-fashioned or dull.
