Necks differ, so treat this as a guide rather than a guarantee - measuring a chain you already wear is the surest way to compare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout 925 sterling silver\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e925 sterling silver is 92.5 per cent pure silver, alloyed with a small proportion of other metal - usually copper - to give it working strength. Pure silver on its own is too soft to hold a clasp or survive being worn, so the alloy is what makes silver practical as jewellery while keeping the colour and density of the real metal. The 925 mark is the international standard for sterling, and it is what separates solid silver from plated pieces built over a base metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSearching in Hinglish, you will see this called a \u003cem\u003echandi ki chain\u003c\/em\u003e - the same thing, solid sterling silver rather than a plated imitation. Silver in India is often judged by weight, which is why the gram figure is listed openly above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to wear it\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWear it alone against a plain crew neck, or layer it with a shorter chain so the two lengths separate cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGifting\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA silver chain is one of the few pieces that suits a birthday, an anniversary or a festival gift without needing a size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this real silver or silver plated?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSolid 925 sterling silver all the way through, including the clasp and findings - not a plated base metal. 925 means 92.5 per cent pure silver, the international sterling standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it turn black over time?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSilver reacts with air and moisture and will dull or darken eventually. That is normal for real silver and it is reversible - a silver polishing cloth restores the shine. Storing it in a closed pouch between wears slows it down considerably.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow will 20 inches sit on me?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA 20 inch chain generally falls a little below the collarbone on most adults - long enough to show above a t-shirt, short enough to stay put under a collar. Necks vary, so measure a chain you already wear if you want to be sure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a pendant come with it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. You receive one chain only.

This chain is around 5.14 g, but each piece is finished by hand so weight varies slightly. Silver is often bought by weight in India, so we list it openly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you receive\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne (1) Silvme 925 sterling silver chain.

That is the metal behaving normally, not a fault, and it reverses with cleaning. Wipe the chain with a soft dry cloth after wearing, keep it clear of fragrance, hair product and chlorinated water, and store it in a closed pouch rather than open air. A silver polishing cloth restores the shine; avoid abrasive pastes, which remove metal with the tarnish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWeight is approximate. Each chain is finished individually, so pieces vary slightly from the figure listed.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Silvme","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49043427295332,"sku":"CHAIN925CH1_1001","price":3699.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/6523\/2996\/files\/18txDexNNyPBQCYeKuC3tElUQKk3gqs7U_s0.png?v=1787257835","url":"https:\/\/silvme.com\/products\/silvme-925-sterling-silver-chain-20-inch-approx-514-g-for-women-and-men-1001","provider":"Silvme","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
