The thoughtful details
Jewelry Care & Size Guide
A comfortable fit and simple care help you enjoy a personal piece. Use the measurements below for the four Auriani necklace designs, rather than judging the length from a model photograph.
16–18 inches or 18–20 inches?
- Custom Name Necklace: adjustable 16–18 inches, approximately 40.6–45.7 cm.
- Heart Name Necklace: adjustable 16–18 inches, approximately 40.6–45.7 cm.
- Family Names Necklace: adjustable 16–18 inches, approximately 40.6–45.7 cm.
- Birth Flower Name Necklace: adjustable 18–20 inches, approximately 45.7–50.8 cm.
How to choose a necklace length
- Lay a necklace you already like flat and measure its chain from end to end, excluding a hanging pendant.
- Compare that measurement with the range for the Auriani design you want.
- Alternatively, measure a piece of string to the shorter and longer settings and hold it gently where you would wear the chain. Never tie it tightly around your neck.
- Check the result with the neckline you expect to wear. The same chain length sits differently on different people.
For a gift, ask for the recipient's preferred length or compare with a necklace they wear often. If neither available range works, ask us before ordering. Do not assume a longer chain or compatible extender is included.
What is the difference between the finishes?
Polished stainless steel is the silver-tone option; it is not sterling silver. The 18K yellow gold finish is a gold-colored surface finish, not a solid gold necklace. Match the finish to the jewelry you enjoy wearing, and check the exact selected option before adding the piece to your bag.
How to clean and store your necklace
Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. Keep the piece dry and avoid direct contact with perfume, lotions and other liquids. Remove it before bathing or swimming. Store it separately, with the chain laid out, to reduce tangling and scratches.
Do not use a care method intended for solid gold or sterling silver simply because the necklace has a similar color. Auriani does not describe these four designs as waterproof or offer a verified nickel-free specification.
Can I layer these necklaces?
Compare the length ranges and pendant shapes first. An 18–20 inch Birth Flower necklace may sit below a 16–18 inch name necklace, depending on the settings and the wearer. The ranges overlap at 18 inches, so choosing two designs does not automatically create a separated layered look.
Each necklace is sold as its own piece. The current range is not a detachable charm system; do not buy it expecting interchangeable pendants or compatibility with another brand's bracelet.
