THE RIGHT CHAIN MATTERS.
Every standard Messages in Metal Saint Christopher chain is a substantial 2.5mm rounded box chain, chosen for strength, proportion and everyday wear.
A SUBSTANTIAL MEDAL NEEDS A SUBSTANTIAL CHAIN.
Our standard Saint Christopher medals are designed for everyday wear, so we pair them with a chain selected for strength, proportion, and durability.
Each standard chain is a 2.5mm rounded box chain made from stainless steel and color-matched to the finish of the medal.
Rounded box chain
A substantial chain width chosen to balance the weight and visual presence of our Saint Christopher medals.
Stainless steel for strength
Our standard chains use stainless steel because it offers excellent strength and durability for jewelry designed to be worn regularly.
Color-matched finish
The chain is finished to coordinate with the medal, creating a consistent look from pendant to chain.
20", 24", OR 28".
THE CLASSIC LENGTH
Our standard length. It typically places the Saint Christopher high enough to remain visible with an open collar or crew-neck shirt.
A LITTLE LOWER
A good choice when you prefer the medal to sit lower on the chest or want a little more room around the neckline.
LONGER & MORE RELAXED
The longest standard option. Ideal for a lower placement, layering, or wearing the medal over clothing.
SAME MEDAL. DIFFERENT POSITION.
Chain length affects where the medal rests on the chest, but body size, neck size, clothing, and posture all influence the final fit.
If you're buying the medal as a gift and aren't sure which length to choose, the 20" chain is our standard starting point.
BECAUSE THE CHAIN HAS A JOB TO DO.
A chain is one of the most frequently stressed parts of a necklace. It moves constantly, rubs against clothing, and supports the weight of the pendant every time the necklace is worn.
We use stainless steel for our standard rounded box chains because it gives us the strength and durability we want for a Saint Christopher medal designed for everyday wear.
STERLING SILVER & SOLID 14K GOLD CHAINS ARE AVAILABLE.
Our standard chains are stainless steel for strength, but sterling silver and solid 14K gold chains are available upon request.
