Catalog of 40 cm Gold Chains
40 cm 18k gold chains: the choker length
40 cm gold chains fit snugly at the base of the neck, like a choker. It is the shortest length we offer and the preferred length for women, to be worn alone, with a small pendant or combined with another longer chain. All are made of 18-karat gold with a 750 hallmark and certificate of authenticity.
Links available in 40 cm
In this length you will find cable, curb, Bilbao, anchor, rope, wheat, fine curb, Singapore, diamond-cut, cord and Italian chains, in yellow gold, white gold and two-tone, with widths between 1 and 4 mm. Many models can also be ordered in 45 or 50 cm from the same product page.
Is 40 cm my size?
With 40 cm, the chain rests at the base of the neck on a woman of medium build; on wider necks it may fit tightly. If you want the pendant to fall into the neckline, choose 50 cm; if you are looking for a longer drop, 60 cm. Measure with a tape where you want it to sit before deciding.
Combine your choker with a pendant
A 40 cm chain looks great with small and light pendants: gold pendants for women, a small Virgin medal or a delicate gold cross. Check that the chain passes through the pendant's loop.

Frequently asked questions about 40 cm gold chains
Is a 40 cm chain for women or men?
Almost always for women or girls. For adult men, 40 cm is too short; 50 or 60 cm is standard.
Can I put a medal on a 40 cm chain?
Yes, if it is small (up to about 15-18 mm). It will sit at the base of the neck. For larger medals, 45 or 50 cm is better.
Can a 40 cm chain be lengthened?
It cannot be lengthened, but many models are also available in 45 and 50 cm. If you already have it and it is too short, you can exchange it for another length within 15 days.
What thickness should I choose in 40 cm?
To wear it alone and have it be seen, 2-2.5 mm. For a light pendant, 1-1.5 mm is enough and looks more delicate.
Does it have a hallmark and certificate?
Yes, all have the 750 hallmark engraved and are sent with a certificate of authenticity and case.
