When you want to take your look to the next level, a necklace can accentuate your neck and further enhance your fashion ensemble. As with other forms of jewelry, be sure that your necklace does not clash with your earrings or outfit. When wearing statement sterling silver earrings, consider something subdued like a silver chain. Sterling silver jewelry has been valued for centuries - and believe or not - silver was once considered more precious than gold. Today, it's the most affordable of the precious metals with lasting strength and durability.
Therefore, if you're searching for the perfect option that fits your jewelry collection (or budget), sterling silver chain necklaces are the way to go.
What is a Chain Necklace?
A necklace is a decorative piece of jewelry, often consisting of a chain and precious stones or a pendant. Necklaces are lined with exquisite details that can change an outfit from drab to fab within seconds. A chain, on the other hand, is simply a piece of metal jewelry that is not linked with any gemstones. However, chains feature chic designs that are perfect for wearing on their own or with a coordinating pendant.
Benefits of Sterling Silver Jewelry
Sterling Silver Chain Necklaces are Durable
There's nothing worse than purchasing a new necklace only for it to break after just a few days of wear. One of the main reasons people purchase sterling silver jewelry is because of its durability. The addition of copper makes silver strong and more resistant to tarnish, and when properly taken care of, sterling silver can last you a lifetime.
Sterling Silver is Hypoallergenic
It may come as a surprise, but sterling silver is actually an alloy. Sterling silver is made up of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% of other metals, typically copper to add strength while preserving the appearance of the pure silver. Other metals typically consist of inexpensive nickel, brass or other base elements that can irritate your skin.
Sterling Silver Chain Necklaces are Inexpensive
Everyone wants to save money, and jewelry purchases are no different. But, that doesn't mean that you can't find something beautiful and classy within your budget. At Kohl's, we make it easy to filter your searches according to the prices you're looking for. And when it comes to sterling silver necklaces, it's easy to find a gorgeous piece at a fraction of the cost of other precious metals. If you love jewelry but want to keep your spending low, sterling silver is the way to go.
Caring for Sterling Silver Chain Necklaces
