What the AI looks for in Men's Pendants
- Bail opening
- The bail must be wider than the chain's thickest link and its clasp. A narrow bail is the most common reason a pendant will not fit an existing chain.
- Chain included or not
- Check whether a chain is included and what it is made of. Bundled chains are often a weaker metal than the pendant.
- Metal
- Choose 316L stainless steel for daily wear, or 925 sterling or karat gold for keepsakes. Plated pendants lose their finish on the edges first.
- Weight and size
- Match the pendant's heft to the chain's strength. A heavy pendant on a fine chain stretches or breaks it.
Brands that matter
- Vnox: Stainless steel pendants, including engravable tags.
What to avoid
- Plated pendants bundled with thin plated chains
- Bails that cannot pass a clasp
