The 40 cm (16 inches) long choker sits close to the neck and adds an elegant touch to any outfit. This necklace is particularly suitable for formal events or when you want to draw attention to your neck and face.

This length is suitable for almost any style of clothing, from casual to formal events. It is a great length if you want to add presence while keeping a delicate appearance.

This length is suitable for all body types, especially those with shorter necks, as it won't make the neck appear too short.
