Difference between pendant and necklace

Even at night when that glittery piece in your neck sparkles across the room illuminating even without any light makes its mark, every purchase made behind it suddenly feels worth it! 

Jewelry is an integral part of dressing up and what's in fashion, is in your wardrobe too. So when you're out there shopping for your right piece, we have collected some information that will help you to understand neck pieces much better and offer the right value! 

A pendant and necklace are not the same! 

Many times, people address pendant or necklace as synonyms for each other while looking at neck pieces, and that is not true! 

A pendant is a singular piece of gem or stone that is attached to a metal wire of gold, silver, platinum or likewise. 

Whereas a necklace goes around your entire neck with gems or stones following through the chain. 

Pendants are usually worn on a necklace and your pendants are versatile. What we mean by that is, you can wear your pendants on any part of the body. They can be your bracelets, they can act as your ankle bracelets and they continue to add value as a petit yet beautiful pendant across the neck. 

Now that we're aware of the differences, let's look at a thorough list of options you behold when you're out shopping! 

There are a few types of pendants that you should definitely look forward to having in your collection! 

1- Gemstones 

From abundant colors, shapes, and styles to choose from gemstones have an aura and appeal to themselves that can make any outfit shine brighter than it ever was. Gemstones always add up a personal touch and a simple chained gemstone pendant can do wonders! 

2- Diamonds 

If we talk about gemstones and not of our shiny friends, we'd be amiss. Oval, emerald, cushion, or princess - your favorite diamond cut is a pendant you can make a family heirloom for a lifetime!  

3- Lockets 

You may be considering lockets out of trend, but classics never die. A locket arrives in various shapes and holds a place for you to add a small item such as a picture to lock inside. Locket chains are usually larger in size but make a promise to hold and cherish your loved memory along with you forever! 

If pendants are not your thing but loud and volumnus pieces are, there are tons of necklace types for you to choose from! 

1- Single strand 

A single strand necklace is nothing but a necklace filled with the stone or gem throughout the circle. The most common single strand are your pearl necklaces. 

2- Choker 

If glitz and glamor is your game, then you're right on track for buying a choker necklace that surrounds your neck above the collarbone leaving very little space for breath. These necklaces are usually studded with diamonds, that highlight your shoulders and neck 

3- Chain 

Chain necklaces are thicker in look and heavier in weight. They come in various shapes and sizes. They can have a single type or multiple types of stones embellished throughout them. There can also be a collection of chains compiled together to add an extravagant look. 

4- Cascade 

Cascade necklaces hold a very special design type that look elegant as well as lavish and a must-have for your collection. Some cascade necklaces feature different kinds of metals and some have multiple layers; both front and back.
