I could not decide which chain I liked with the charms the best- so we decided to do all three options so you have the MOST options! I love the chains layered together and mixed up- you simply cannot go wrong with these. This necklace is also lovely worn doubled around your neck- we added in an extra loop so you can also wear it at varying lengths... we really tried to accommodate all heights and preferences! The medium chain has a really nice heft to it - and I like to wear two of them together.. for a little extra impact! The gold plated charms can easily be clipped on or off the chain and do fall to the base of where the chain falls naturally ( unlike the chunky chain option where you can position the charms on an individual chain link)
