Men's necklaces with pendants are simply defined by a pendant or charm suspended on a chain or length of leather which is worn around the neck. The pendant can take literally any form, and is probably the oldest form of jewellery, going way back to when cavemen would hang hunting trophies around his neck. Pendant necklaces are more significant than ever with an array of unique designs, bold shapes, and materials. Combinations of stones, charms with distressed or textured surfaces, Gothic and rock-inspired designs are just some examples you might see used to create both necklaces and the pendants hung from them.

Materials in Men's Pendant Necklaces

The techniques which are used to design and construct both pendants and necklaces have advanced phenomenally. The discovery of silver alloy being combined with copper to produce the more commonly known 925 Sterling silver has produced a material which is strong and perfect for the production of intricate and unique designs. Precious metals, wood, titanium, metamorphic stone and glass are all alternative materials which are used to combine with a silver or metal (Gold & platinum) casing to create necklaces with pendants which convey high design and superb craftsmanship.

Finishes of men's jewellery

It is not only the materials which are used to create pendants or necklaces that can be changed to create identifiable pieces, it is the finish and methods which are used to shape and detail the metal that can differentiate the style of the piece; whether the metal has a high-shine, matte or hammered finish the components of a necklace can dramatically change. This, along with the history of the necklace has evolved to produce an item of jewellery which can be used to accent and identify an individuality. The use of a Curb, Figaro, Cable or leather chain can instantly be highlighted with the use of a pendant and varies in such a way there is an item for every single style and preference.
