Silver anchor chain for ashes pendants | 40 + 5 cm

A silver anchor chain for a personal keepsake

The chain you choose for an ashes pendant accompanies a piece of jewellery with special meaning. This silver anchor chain complements your pendant with fine, even links. Its open structure gives it a delicate appearance, keeping the focus on your memorial jewellery. The adjustable length allows you to choose your preferred position.

Rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver

The chain is made from 925 sterling silver, containing 92.5% pure silver. A thin protective rhodium plating gives it a bright shine and helps slow tarnishing caused by oxidation. The lobster clasp makes it straightforward to open and close.

Adjustable from 40 to 45 cm

The chain has a base length of 40 cm and a 5 cm extension, allowing a total length of up to 45 cm. For many people, the shorter setting sits relatively high around the neck or collarbone. Using the extension lets the ashes pendant rest a little lower.

The exact position depends on your build and the pendant's size. If you are unsure, measure a chain that feels comfortable to wear and compare the lengths. This can help you picture where your personal keepsake will sit.

Choosing a suitable combination

Check that your ashes pendant's hanging loop has enough space for the links and clasp. Also consider the weight of the pendant when choosing a chain. The fine anchor links work with different pendant designs while allowing the memorial piece to remain the focus.

Keeping your chain looking its best

Daily use and friction can gradually wear the rhodium plating. Avoid contact with perfume, toiletries, chlorine and cleaning products. Clean the chain gently with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive silver polishes, which can damage the finish.

Remove the chain before showering, swimming or sleeping. Store it separately in a jewellery box or soft pouch to help prevent scratches and tangles.

Pair the chain with your ashes pendant and choose the length that feels right for you.
