No tension when it comes to selecting and creating accessories the way you like it. There are no strict rules like not wearing gold and silver together. On the contrary – it is allowed and even desirable. Particularly, layering necklaces are a hit of the season. Modern times culture fosters unrestrained self-expression not only in the field of wearing jewelry and styling in general, but also in the way of being. Those who keep with the times want to show their style off as well as express their values, personality, and interest. And in an age of the Internet and social media, influencers and celebrities spread the latest fashions in a snap.
Their inspiration and a wide field of contemporary freedom in design gives opportunity to create true works of art, which, however, won’t find a place in the protected showcase, but rather will become a piece of daily stylizations. They have a charm that is a value in itself, because their beauty pleases the eye, arrests attention, and brings joy. Jewelry accessories combined with feminine beauty are irresistible. As for the necklaces, the most popular is the stacked necklace. It is worth paying more attention to this jewelry style to complement yourself and find inspiration to create great designs.
Layered jewelry (not only necklaces) is a vast field of possibilities to make the most of it in countless combinations of chains, pendants, pearls, beads, crystals and more. Only imaginary boundaries can hold you back. Jewelry supplies wholesaler 925CRAFT has an extensive range of products including necklace chains, pendants and connector charms, and more that can be used to make phenomenal neck’s decorations.
Layered necklaces have at least two chain layers of different lengths, hence their name. Trend for multiple chain necklaces had already begun a few years ago, but this year they appear in a great variety of more spectacular versions. There is space not only for a mix of colors, a combination of silver with gold, but also for different styles, weaves, and lengths of chains – in a word, no limits. The shortest layers closest to the neck are usually choker-length. Each lower layer is forming a perfectly composed cascade of chains. One thing is for sure – whatever you choose to add to the composition, it will look great, because it is the kind of jewelry that cannot arouse the feeling that there is something off.
Various kinds of pendants are combined with the necklace chains – single pendants for each layer or several pendants for multiple of them. Currently, clients show interest in double pendants, e.g. in the form of coins. Another option is themed pendants: seashells or travel pendants offered in category pendants, so when looking for a desired pattern, select the filter: “Motif”. The cherry on top of decorations is a tube bar pendant on the last layer for a chain up to 2.5 mm without a pinch bails. Moreover, it can be engraved, thanks to which a multi layered necklace can also be personalized. The longest element of this type of jewelry is often a lariat necklace, the various styles of which can be found in the category of necklace bases. They can go well with any pendant since they are ended with jumprings. Various kinds of chains for connector charms as well as ready-made bases with clasp for pendants (among which are interesting cable/anchor chain designs with sun and clover links) are good for stacked necklaces.
Convenient solution for multiple thin chains (two or three) is joining them together with one clasp and using open jumpring for attaching chains and clasp. Keep in mind that more chains often twist around each other if the necklace has one clasp, so practical notice is to fix all the layers not at the very top at the clasp, on the back of the neck, but a bit lower – to a extensions of a single chain, for example with jumprings. In our assortment for 2-layer or 3-layer necklaces are ready-made bases with one clasp: double necklace base made of cable chain of different thickness and two thin chain base necklace of the same thickness. They can be used for pendants or connector charms, through which the chain is thread on the pattern of celebrity style small necklaces. Whereas the triple chain base (also cable chain type) is dedicated to connectors. Layered necklaces look stunningly both with or without pendants, that is why they are willingly worn solo.
Chains by the meter of various thicknesses and types are perfect for original concepts of layer necklaces. Thanks to them the length of them can be freely regulated. The necklace idea may include a combination of chains with elements made of pearls, crystal beads or flat wooden beads in a surf style. Chains by the meter are the best choice for designing a layer decorated every few centimeters with connector charms such as Rivoli base – for beautifully shining GAVBARI crystals or GAVBARI semi-precious Rivoli stones or rose-cut stones. Jump rings, which are available in our online store in many thicknesses and sizes are recommended to fix them on the chain. They will be also useful in making a cascade consisting only of, for example, small pendant connectors.
Chains on spool are a proposition for another type of multi layered necklace, in which the layers, consisting only of chains, are densely arranged next to each other, creating a kind of a bunch. The layers are not directly connected at the top with a single clasp, but attached below the neck to a thicker chain by means of large links. This connection can be decorated with a pearl connector or with the above-mentioned stones or crystals.
Among the chains available by the meter, there is also a handmade bicone bead model, which is perfect for creating the longest layer of a necklace in the style of a lariat or rosary necklace. Another idea for using chains by the meter is to create a personalized long stacked necklace combined with fragments made of round pearls or pearls of other shapes, for an outfit with a neckline other than v-neck or without a neckline at all. Chains can also be connected with a bunch of straps, strings or a ribbon, using different finishing elements for this purpose. You can also make tassels as the accessory of the lowest layer.
The first cascade in a layered necklace, and therefore the shortest, is a choker. Its length is between 35 and 41 cm. Chains of this size you can find in different types in the necklace bases category. But choker necklaces aren’t just chains. They are made of various details that give them fabulous forms. In fashion are beaded styles of chokers for which we offer precious stones such as ruby, emerald or sapphire that can be a decorative part of the necklace, also enriched with pearls, silver balls, and AB effect bicon crystals for a totally phenomenal effect. A boho-style stacked necklace is a proposition which additionally offers extra components such as tassels and beads made of colorful semi-precious stones that harmonize very well with this style. Such a necklace can be complemented with pendants with floral, feathers, insects, seashells, and dreamcatcher motifs, which are available on our offer. The stones will add refinement, special charm and value to the jewelry due to its origin from the earth.
We also offer short pearl chains and black Alcantara necklace bases. Besides, we have pearl models that are dedicated to connectors and finished with clamshell bead tip to which chains can be attached, creating successive layers of a stacked necklace. The Alcantara choker can be decorated with charms by using silver bead bails.

Its dimensions can be really impressive. Chunky chains consist of large and even massive links or segments – depending on the weave. These models are also used in layered necklace designs.
