18 inches: Placement: Base of neck of smaller man. This is a short length that falls just below the collarbone. A popular choice for beaded necklaces that sit above t-shirts with crew necks.
20 inches: Placement: Collarbone; most common size. This is a common length for men that falls right at the collarbone. If worn with a low v-neck or unbuttoned dress shirt, pendants will be hidden under a crew neck.
22 inches: Placement: A few inches below the collarbone; medallion can be added. Falls below the collarbone and can be worn over or under a shirt. Chains like this are popular because they're breathable.
*Please keep in mind that these are all approximations for an average woman’s or man’s height and size. Larger people may need longer lengths and petite ones may need shorter lengths.
