Paperclip Chain Necklace Frequently Asked Questions

    Each piece is custom made for you. Please allow 10 business days for production unless the listing notes the item is already in stock.

  • Can I add a pendant or charm?

    Yes. You made need some help depending on the size of the charm bail.
