Necklace Layering Guide #multilayered
  • Sometimes more is simply more - at least that's the case when it comes to the fashion trend of necklace layering, where several necklaces of different lengths and designs are worn on top of each other. This trend is suitable for all those who can't get enough of neck accessories and prefer to adorn themselves with as many pieces as possible at once. This can create a very individual and expressive look that creatively combines different styles and materials. Whether in everyday life, on special occasions or in a professional environment - chain layering allows you to express your personality and sense of style in an elegant way. It allows you to create both subtle and eye-catching accents and thus refine your own style.

    How do you go about it? As with everything in life: try, try, try! The important thing is to get started, put on the necklaces from your jewellery collection and let your creativity run wild. Combine different materials and metals with each other and try out different gemstones and pieces of jewellery - use what you have at first and only buy one or two pieces to complete your collection at the end. So that you don't have to start from scratch, we have put together a few tips that are essential for a successful look with a chain layering.

    One of the most important aspects is paying attention to chain lengths. Start with a medium-length chain (40-45 cm) as a base, which lies perfectly on the collarbone and serves as a starting point. This length is versatile and forms the foundation for the other chains. Then add a narrower, closer fitting chain (30-40 cm). This shorter chain should gently wrap around the neck and create an extra layer to add depth to the look. Finally, add a highlight piece - a long necklace (45-80 cm) with a statement pendant or eye-catching links. This longer necklace will draw attention to itself and round off the layering perfectly.

    Choose a look that suits the depth of your neckline. Longer necklaces are particularly suitable for a deep V-neckline, while shorter necklaces are better suited to a round neckline.

  • In addition to varying lengths, the right statement piece plays a central role in chain layering. An eye-catching pendant or a striking chain can have a significant influence on the overall look and give it an individual touch. Your personality should play a significant role in your choice.

    For example, the necklaces in our Pearl Collection with an exquisite pendant made from a genuine porcelain pearl are mystical, subtle and stylish. The secret is the so-called lustre color, which reflects the light like mother-of-pearl, just like a real natural pearl. These are available in white in our "Pearl Collection Pure White" or in purple in the "Pearl Collection Lilac".

    The pendants in our "1722 Swords" collection are full of historical splendor and incomparable elegance - the focus is on the reinterpretation of MEISSEN's "Crossed Swords", which have distinguished genuine Meissen originals from other pieces since 1722.

    For all those who take great pleasure in the beauty of nature, our "Bloom Collection" is particularly suitable as the focal point of individual chain layering. The collection, which includes necklaces and other accessories, shows the different stages of development of a lily flower. As a pendant with a chain, you can choose between an emerging bud or a slightly open porcelain flower head.

    For very special preferences, we are sure to have the perfect piece or two among our porcelain pendants with which you can make a particularly personal statement. Whether as a heart pendant with numerous different hand-painted motifs or as an animal pendant in the shape of your absolute favorite from the animal world.
