The design

Paperclip links are long and flat, so the chain looks light and modern while using solid gold. The open links also let you clip a charm on at any point along the chain. At 16 inches a chain sits at the collarbone, 18 inches just below it, and 20 inches at the top of the chest. More in our guide to mixing and layering metals.

A gemologist’s note

Our gemologist sees the paperclip chain as the layering piece: wear it alone, or at 18 or 20 inches under a shorter cable chain with a pendant.

Care

Unclasp it before putting it on or taking it off rather than pulling it over your head. Store it fastened and flat so it does not knot, and polish with a soft jewelry cloth.
