Short necklaces (30-39 cm)

Short necklaces from 30 to 39 cm

At Just Good Jewellery, necklaces from 30 to 39 cm are classified as short necklaces.

Because of their length, they sit higher around the neck than our medium-length and long necklaces. Where a necklace falls varies from person to person and, of course, also by size.

A few centimetres can make a difference. Always check the exact length of the product.

Which length will you choose?

30, 35 or 39 cm: there can be quite a difference within a single category.

If you want to wear the necklace really high, look at the shorter sizes. If you want it to fall a little lower, you can look at the longer sizes within this category.

Do you already have a short necklace at home that fits perfectly? Measure it. That way you'll have a handy starting point when choosing.

And do you find that 30–39 cm is still a bit short for you? Then you can take a look at our medium-length necklaces from 40 to 50 cm.

Is a short necklace the same as a choker?

Not necessarily.

A choker is worn quite close to the neck. A short necklace also sits high, but does not have to fit as closely.

Whether a necklace from 30 to 39 cm really falls like a choker on you depends, among other things, on the exact length and how the necklace sits around your neck.

Are you specifically looking for that close-fitting effect? Then take a close look at the size of the model.

Short doesn't say anything about the style

A short necklace does not automatically have to be minimalist.

Within this length, you can come across different designs. Think of a delicate necklace, a pendant, beads, links, or a design that stands out a bit more.

That actually makes choosing quite fun: you've already decided on the length, now it's time to choose the design.

What will you go for?

Nice with a longer necklace

Because a short necklace is worn high, you can easily wear a longer necklace underneath it.

For example, combine it with a medium-length necklace from 40 to 50 cm. If you want more contrast between the two, you can also choose a long necklace.

After that, it's mainly a matter of trying it out. Two delicate necklaces together, a short necklace with a pendant over a chain, or different styles mixed together.

And do you think your short necklace is nice enough on its own? Then just stick with one.

What neckline will you wear it with?

Because a short necklace sits high, it remains clearly visible with many necklines.

With a slightly open neckline, the necklace stands out directly against your skin. If you wear a T-shirt or top with a higher neckline, a short design can sit beautifully above the neckline.

Above all, try out what you like yourself. The same short necklace can suddenly look completely different with a different top.

Gold-coloured or silver-coloured?

Of course, even within short necklaces, you can look at the colour you like to wear.

Go for gold-coloured, choose silver-coloured, or combine both if that appeals to you.

Do you wear multiple necklaces at the same time? Then you can keep them all in the same colour, but you don't have to. A short gold-coloured necklace over a silver-coloured model can look just as good.

Giving a short necklace as a gift

Giving a short necklace as a gift? Then take a closer look at the size than you might with a longer necklace.

Because these necklaces sit higher around the neck, it's good to know approximately what length someone likes to wear.

Do you know that? Then you can move on to the fun part: the design. Delicate and minimalist, with a pendant, beads, or something more striking.

For your bestie, sister, mother or partner: choose something you can completely picture her wearing that necklace.
