Is a 20-inch chain long enough for a pendant?

Yes. At 20 inches the chain sits at or just below the collarbone on most adults, which is a standard length for a pendant or charm. On a larger neck it will sit higher.

Will this chain tarnish?

Sterling silver tarnishes when exposed to air, moisture and skin oils. Store it in a sealed bag and polish it with a silver cloth to keep the shine.

Can I wear it in the shower or pool?

It is best to take it off first. Chlorine, soap and repeated moisture speed up tarnish and can dull the diamond-cut edges.

Does it come with a pendant?

No. This is the chain only, so any pendant or charm is bought separately. Check that the pendant's bail fits the curb links.

Is diamond-cut silver real diamond?

No. Diamond-cut means the links are cut with angled facets that reflect light like a diamond. There are no stones in the chain.

When is the best time to buy it?

Jewelry chains see the deepest discounts around major sales events and the winter holidays. Compare the current price against its recent range before buying.

Our take on the Zales Diamond-Cut Curb Chain Necklace in Sterling Silver

This is a 20-inch sterling silver curb chain necklace from Zales with diamond-cut links, which add faceted edges that catch light more than a plain polished curb chain. It is sold as the chain only, so pendants and charms are added separately. At 20 inches it sits at or just below the collarbone on most adults, a common length for men and for layered wear. Zales is a mall-based jeweler, so the chain is backed by a national chain's service rather than a single storefront.
