Is the Gorjana Venice Necklace real gold?

No. It is 18k gold plating over brass, not solid gold. The plating gives the color, and the brass core keeps the price down.

What lengths does it come in?

It is listed at 17 inches and 20 inches, both 3/16 inch wide. The 17-inch version sits at the collarbone; the 20-inch sits lower.

Can I wear it in the shower or with perfume?

Gorjana advises avoiding contact with anything containing alcohol derivatives, which includes perfume and some hair products. Take it off before showering or swimming to protect the plating.

How should I store a herringbone chain?

Lay it flat or hang it so the links do not bend. Herringbone chains kink easily when coiled or stuffed into a bag.

Is it good for layering?

Yes. The flat herringbone design and 17-inch length are made for stacking with shorter and longer chains. The 20-inch version layers well under a shorter pendant.
