Pendant is a type of pendant. It is worn on a lace or on a chain. Fundamentally, it is no different from the suspension. It is made of precious and non-precious metals, may have inserts of precious or ornamental stones. It can be made, including glass (Murano), leather, bone.
Where is the pendant worn?
Unlike a pendant that can be attached to a bracelet on an arm or leg, pierced with it, a chain with a pendant is designed only to be worn around the neck. Therefore, you need to know a few simple rules on how to wear them correctly. It all depends on the length of the chain. If it is large, then the chain with the pendant will lie on the chest and emphasize the beauty of the bust.
On a shorter chain, the pendant draws attention to a beautiful neckline or pretty neck. If the chain with the pendant falls below five centimeters from the collarbone, then this will visually lengthen the neck. The pendant lying between the collarbones will emphasize the perfection of her form. For a long graceful neck, a short chain with a pendant will do.
How to choose the right chain
From wearing jewelrythe chains are frayed and torn, and you can irretrievably lose both the jewelry and the chain. The weight ratio of the gold or silver chain and the pendant should be two to one. It is even more reliable if the weight of the chain for the pendant is three times the weight of the pendant. In addition, the strength of the chain is affected by the type of weaving. The most durable are anchor and shell, as they easily bend. It doesn't harm them. If you wind such a chain around your finger, then it will lie smoothly, without creases. It is in this case that a gold or silver chain with a pendant will last a long time.
Creating an image
The pendant can be selected in accordance with the circumstances when it will be used - in the afternoon or in the evening. It could be a retro style that never goes out of style.
Sapphire, ruby, emerald or alexandrite surrounded by diamonds is a timeless classic. But an ultra-modern style is also possible, which will catch the eye of everyone with its conciseness.

By type of material:
- Gold, including white and rose gold. Since gold has always been considered a sign of prosperity, a gold chain with a pendant will indicate the success and independence of its owner.
- Silver can accentuate a person's personality and style better than gold, and they are very good for daily wear. What is interesting about silver: the more often it is worn, the more its individual parts shine, while others, remaining dark, emphasize the brilliance and polish of the metal. This becomes even more interesting if it is the result of using a pendant with a chain, and not the work of a jeweler. It is silver that is most often used in the manufacture of children's chains with a pendant.

It's hard to break away from listing everything that jewelers invented and embodied in products. Few of their works, when you look at the quality of performance, when you are amazed at the invention and skill, leave you indifferent. And it does not matter what it is - a pendant with a sapphire or amethyst, set in diamonds, or modern jewelry steel. One can only be amazed at the quality and variety of the offered pendants. Jewelers' improvisations do not allow them to be neatly classified by their appearance, because there are watches, and aroma pendants, and initials, and amulets, and flash pendants, and signs of the zodiac, and much more.
