Silver Name Necklaces

Silver Name Necklaces - Since When?

Name necklaces became a rising trend in the 1980s when teenage high school kids started wearing these name necklaces as part of the urban street culture. Name necklaces were further popularized by the street hip-hop culture, for which wearing name necklaces meant showing of fame, money and power. Later, popular TV celebrities started sporting wearing them – both gold and silver name necklaces. Name necklaces became a craze once more.

Types of Silver Name Necklaces

Silver name necklaces are made of silver and include either cut-out letters or engraved letters of the individual's name.

When designer jewelry chains are passed through silver name pendants, it results in silver name necklaces. There is a variety of silver name necklaces found in jewelry stores. These include German silver name necklaces, oxidized silver name necklaces, sterling silver name necklaces and pure silver name necklaces.

Out of all these silver name necklaces, the ones that are most popular among buyers and sellers alike are the 925 sterling silver name necklaces. The names are either engraved on silver pendants or forged together to form the pendants.

Advantages of Silver name necklaces

• Silver name necklaces being white in color can be matched with any outfit. This is advantageous especially for working women who find it easy to wear silver name necklaces on their way to work.
• With their slim and sleek designs, silver name necklaces are considered to be trendy and are just perfect for making a trendsetting fashion statement.
• The silver name necklaces cost much less than their gold counterparts.

Silver name necklaces – like any other handmade silver jewelry – may loose their shine over the course of time. Be sure to polish your silver name necklace every so often to retain its original shine and glow.

Silver Name Necklaces: Designs

There are two main designs for silver name necklaces: the silver name pendants design, and the design of the silver chain. The chains used for silver name necklaces are usually Rollo chains, box chains or rope chains. These jewelry chains vary in thickness and each has its own unique design- mesh, knot or intertwined. The length of the chain can be custom made but the general standard is around 18 inches.

The design of silver name pendants depends on the individual's name. The name can either be engraved or can be forged. If engraved, the engravings are done on platforms like name plates, dog tags or any shape suitable for pendants.

For engraving and forging silver name necklaces, the buyers have a wide range of scripts (English, Hebrew etc.) and a wide range of fonts (straight, classic or cursive) to choose from.

Price of Silver Name Necklaces

The price of silver name necklaces may vary from $50 to $500. The variation in price depends on two things:

Thickness of the chains used, i.e., the amount of silver used for the chains in silver name necklaces
The design of the pendants. Pendants that contain a larger or longer name, or more than one name, will surely cost more than those containing a short or single name.
