The coffee bean necklace is one of the most versatile and elegant pieces of jewelry currently available. But with so many different sizes, widths, and finishes, how do you make the right choice? This guide will help you find the perfect coffee bean necklace for your style.

What is a coffee bean chain?

The coffee bean chain is made up of oval, beveled links, assembled in such a way as to catch the light from all angles. Born in Italian workshops in the 1970s, it is now one of the most recognizable chains in contemporary jewelry.

What length should you choose?

The length of the necklace determines its visual effect and how it is worn:

  • 40–42 cm: choker, structured and modern effect. Ideal for necklines.
  • 45 cm: classic and versatile length, the most commonly worn. Suitable for all body types.
  • 50 cm: mid-length, perfect for layering or casual wear.
  • 55 cm and more: bohemian or statement effect, to be worn with open outfits.

What width should you choose?

  • 8 mm: thin and elegant, ideal for a discreet, everyday style. Suitable for both women and men.
  • 10 mm: more imposing and assertive, perfect for a statement look or masculine wear.
