Two chains, two different weights, doing one job together. The herringbone lies flat and wide, catching light along its whole run. The snake chain sits thinner underneath, close and quiet. Layered as one finished piece — no separate clasps to juggle, no chains to untangle at 2am. Wear it and forget it's there. Shower, workout, salt water — the finish doesn't move.
MAKE · FORM · WEAR
MAKE — 18K gold PVD over 316L surgical-grade stainless steel. Waterproof, hypoallergenic, tarnish-resistant.
FORM — A flat herringbone chain layered over a fine snake chain, pre-set as one piece. High-shine, close to the skin.
WEAR — Gold/Silver. Herringbone sits at approx. 16" with a 2" extension; snake chain sits at approx. 18" with a 2" extension, so the two layers fall at different depths. Lobster clasp.

THE FINISH
PVD bonds the color to surgical steel at the molecular level. It doesn't flake, fade, or turn skin. The finish used on surgical tools and watch cases, not a plating that wears off in a season.

every piece begins as something she wanted to wear
I wanted a different chain length, and Shezal was quick to accommodate. She was communicative, and the turnaround from making the necklace to shipping was fast. I love it. It's exactly what I pictured, with a bit of heft, too, so you can tell it's great quality.
