How to Wear It

Start with the 18-inch length if you want a classic collarbone drop, it sits right at the neckline and gives every charm room to move. Go shorter (14 or 16 inch) for a choker-style stack that layers beautifully over longer chains; go longer (20 or 22 inch) if you prefer a relaxed, bohemian fall. When you create your own charm arrangement, begin with three to five pieces spaced evenly along the paperclip links, then add or pull charms as your mood shifts. The round carabiner doubles as a design detail on its own, so leave it visible rather than hiding it at the back. Pair with PRASINOUS freshwater pearl or gemstone charms to bring a South Florida coastal story into every combination.

FAQ

Are the charms included when I buy this necklace?

No, this listing is for the base chain only. Charms are sold separately in our Charmlab by PRASINOUS collection, so you can choose exactly the pieces you want and build your own combination from scratch.

Will the gold plating tarnish or fade with everyday wear?

The chain is gold-plated stainless steel with a non-tarnish finish, so it holds up well to daily wear. To keep it looking its best, avoid prolonged water exposure and store it dry in a pouch when you are not wearing it.

What length should I choose?

The 18-inch standard sits at the collarbone on most necklines and works for the widest range of charm arrangements. Choose 14 or 16 inch for a choker or stacked look, and 20 or 22 inch if you want a longer, layered drop. All lengths are listed in both inches and centimeters in the dropdown.
