Beaded Necklace: FAQ

How do I ensure the necklace length is correct for my neckline?

Always measure your neck or a favorite necklace in centimeters before buying. Most listings provide length charts; look for extenders if you are unsure about the fit.

How can I tell if the beads are natural stone or plastic?

Check the product specifications for keywords like 'natural', 'genuine', or specific stone names like 'agate' or 'jasper'. Synthetic options often use terms like 'resin', 'acrylic', or 'simulated'.

Will the string or wire break easily?

Look for necklaces strung on steel wire or high-strength nylon thread rather than elastic for longevity. Listings mentioning 'knotted between beads' offer superior durability and safety.

Do beaded necklaces arrive safely during shipping?

Most reputable sellers use bubble wrap and jewelry boxes to prevent crushing or scratching. Check user reviews for photos of the packaging to ensure safe delivery.

Recommendations for buyers

✓
Material Weight & Comfort
Natural stones are significantly heavier and colder to the touch than acrylic or resin. Consider the total weight listed in the specs if you plan to wear the piece for extended periods.
✓
Clasp Material Quality
Ensure the clasp is made of stainless steel or sterling silver (925). These materials resist tarnishing and are hypoallergenic, preventing skin irritation.
✓
Bead Uniformity vs. Organic Look
For seed beads (Miyuki/Toho), look for 'uniform size' in descriptions for a high-end look. Conversely, for natural stones, slight variations in color and shape indicate authenticity.
✓
Stringing Method
Double-strung nylon or coated steel wire offers the best resistance against snapping compared to basic elastic cords, especially for heavier gemstone beads.
