I have a beautiful white gold diamond pendant that I used to wear on a thin serpentine chain that I accidentally kinked, so I wanted to find the most delicate yet strong white gold cable chain (a type of necklace link that cannot kink) to show it off. This chain is PERFECT since I did not want the chain to compete with the pendant the way the flat chain did. It is a delicate shiny whisp of an elegant chain that ends up accentuating the beauty of the pendant. This chain is perfect for stick pendants as well (sometimes called journey pendants), since they would also look great when hanging from such a thin and elegant chain. If it comes in a 20+ inch version I will be buying that length also to wear with deeper cut dresses and blouses.
