Pendants
Choosing from Among the Myriad of Pendants
Pendants come in just about every style and color. Visit the jewelry stores in your area and you are sure to find a variety of pendants. Here are some tips for selecting the right one for you:
1) Drop pendants look great with many necklines. These pendants are hung by a small chain or loop that is attached to the necklace. These pendants can be vertical or tapered and extend roughly an inch downwards. They can be dramatic or classic in style. Common styles of drop pendants include a line of gems – which are modern looking – or teardrop shapes – which can look classic.
2) Slide pendants can also be very flattering. These types of pendants slide along the chain on one wide loop or on multiple loops. If you want a pendant for a snake chain, these pendants are your best bet. Most slide pendants consist of solitaire gemstones mounted on thick gold or silver frames. These pendants can look dramatic.
3) Clip-on pendants can be removed or put on without removing the necklace. If you have a necklace that you wear all the time, clip-on pendants allow you to accessorize your necklace as often as you like. Most clip-on pendants have clamps that shut on the chain. This holds the pendant in place. Depending on the clip, the pendant may be fixed o may slide along like a slide pendant. If you are buying clip-on pendants, make sure that you buy a pendant with a good clamp, or you may lose your new accessory. Only match clip-on pendants with lighter necklaces, since the weight of heavier necklaces can cause the clasp to pop open and can lead you to lose your pendant.
4) If you have a chain or necklace you love, consider having a wardrobe of pendants. They can give your necklace a whole new look in an instant. Just bring your necklace or chain into jewelry stores with you to ensure that your pendants will work well with your necklace. Make sure that the shade of gold in both the pendants and necklace match well.
5) Check the weight of your pendant before buying. The pendant should lie smoothly, without flipping over and without pulling too heavily on the chain.
6) Check proportion before buying. The necklace or chain and the pendant should be proportional in size. Larger pendants call for thick chains and smaller pendants call for lighter chains. A mismatch will look unsightly.
7) Avoid huge pendants for work. Similarly, stay away from tiny gold pendants that look like childish trinkets. This means anything with initials, zodiac symbols, or animals. They will not make you look professional best.
