The strongest chains for a pendant necklace are the wheat chain and cable chain.

Classic cable chains use individual oval or round links that are interlocked in a uniform pattern which offers a durable and simple look.

What is a pendant in a necklace?
A pendant is the decorative part of a necklace. The pendant hangs from the necklace chain and it is secured around the chain with a bail. Other pendant styles often wrap around the chain in additional closure types, but bails are the most common for attaching pendants to chains.
How long are pendant necklaces?
There are two lengths to keep in mind when shopping for platinum, silver or gold pendant necklaces. The first is the length of the chain and the second is the length of the pendant itself. 16 to 20 inches are common lengths for women’s pendant necklaces while men’s pendant necklaces often have chains that are 24 inches or longer. Pendants can vary widely in size from fractions of an inch to several inches large.
The chain length will determine how low the starting point of the pendant sits while the pendant’s size will determine its overall presence when being worn. Jewelry is a personal choice, and the size of the pendant necklace you choose should match your style.
