Frequently Asked Questions
"How secure is my ring, really?"
Your ring is completely secure on your Emily C necklace in virtually every situation. It will not fall off. Although it seems like magic, the way it works is really no secret. When you are wearing your necklace, the chain and the pendant create an hourglass shape. Your ring rests securely at the narrowest part of that hourglass shape. Your ring cannot come off because the widest part of the pendant is wider than your ring. Meanwhile, gravity pulls the pendant downward, making the chain taut around your neck and creating the upper part of the hourglass.
In situations when the chain won't be more or less taut around your neck, such as during swimming or surfing, we don't recommend wearing your ring on your necklace. Also, treat your chain as carefully as you'd treat the chain on any diamond necklace- do not let it be yanked or abused, and replace it if you suspect any damage.
"Can I attach two rings?"
"Can I use another chain with my Emily C necklace?"
Absolutely. The chain included with your necklace has been specially selected for its strength and flexibility; you may find that some chains are not flexible enough to work. However, if you have another chain you'd like to use, and it's flexible enough, feel free to use it instead!
"I just got my Emily C necklace, and I have a hard time putting my ring on and removing it. Any advice?"
Yes- do it in front of a mirror the first few times! It's a simple movement, but when you're trying to do it without seeing what you're doing, it can feel a little awkward. Once you practice a few times with the help of a mirror, the motion of taking it on and off will become quick and effortless.
