This necklace brings together a 3.5 mm Figaro chain and a plain black cross pendant on a short 16 inch strand. The steel base is nickel-free and lead-free, built to handle sweat and water during daily wear. Because of the shorter length, the piece rests high against the collarbone, keeping the medium pendant visible even with an open collar. The dark finish gives the traditional Figaro pattern a distinct, muted presence on the neck.

At 16 inch, this chain sits high around the base of the neck rather than dropping onto the sternum. Larger neck sizes may find the fit closer to a choker, which leaves little room for layering underneath.
The 3.5 mm chain features diamond-cut links that alternate in the classic Figaro rhythm. The attached black pendant measures 1.8 inches long by 1.0 inch wide, offering a smooth surface that balances the detailed links.
The stainless steel core resists rust, while a secure lobster clasp fastens the ends. Like any coated steel jewelry, the black finish can eventually show friction wear at the clasp contact points over prolonged daily use. It arrives in a jewelry box with an enclosed thank you card.
The pendant swings against the chain all day, and that is where the finish goes first. Wipe both with a dry cloth after wearing, and give the bail a look every month or so: an open bail is how pendants get lost.
