How To Measure Necklace Length?
When it comes to shopping online or replacing jewelry, measuring your necklace length at home is a simple but important task. Start by placing the necklace on a smooth surface and use a flexible measuring tape to determine its length. If a measuring tape is not available, you can use a piece of wire or tape as an alternative. Gently straighten and measure the necklace at the inner end, and tie the loop or string to ensure a perfect fit. For a necklace clip, be sure to include the hooks in your measurements for a perfect fit. Your familiar neck length matches well with the clothes you wear and makes for a luxurious wearing experience.
