Choker Necklaces by MyReviewsNow

A choker is a necklace with a chain that’s from 14 to 16 inches long. A dog collar is a multi-strand, choker length necklace that might be held by a single clasp. Other lengths of choker necklaces are, in order of length, the princess length; the matinee length; the opera length, which is twice the size of the choker; and the rope.

Pearls

Many of Blue Nile’s choker necklaces are made of pearls, and their prices vary depending on the type and size of the pearls and the quality of the clasp, some of which are made from 18K gold, and a few of which are made of gold and diamonds. Many of the pearls were freshwater pearls or Akoya pearls. Akoya pearls are very high quality pearls found in the Akoya oyster that lives in the waters around Japan. One choker is made of cultured Akoya pearls, all of one size, with an 18K white gold clasp. Very highly rated by customers, this pearl choker sells for $890. Another choker of premier Akoya cultured pearls has a clasp of 18K white gold and diamonds, and sells for $2,800, while another freshwater cultured pearl necklace, which can come in a 16 inch length and whose pearls are 6.0 to 6.5 mm in size, sells for $225. Another classic Akoya strand has 7.5 to 8 mm sized pearls and sells for $1,390. Another choker, made of white gold and adorned with a single pearl, starts at $155. One beautiful choker necklace is a three strand piece of oval, freshwater cultured pearls with a sterling silver clasp whose price begins at only $115.

Precious Metals

Other examples of Blue Nile’s choker necklaces are made of Precious Metals like white or yellow gold. White gold is alloyed with nickel to give it its white color, and yellow gold is often alloyed with copper. Other precious metals that go into the making of choker necklaces are sterling silver and platinum. A simple, 18K white gold cable chain begins in 16 inch length and costs $240. A customer can buy another choker-length cable chain in sterling silver, beginning at only $40, or a cable chain choker in 18K yellow gold beginning at $245. A choker length cable chain in 14K yellow gold starts at $170, and another cable chain in white gold also sells for $170. Another cable chain made of platinum begins at $425. Platinum is becoming more and more popular as a precious metal for jewelry, as it doesn’t tarnish and doesn’t need to be alloyed with other metals to retain its strength or luster, unlike silver and gold.

Diamonds

A few of the choker necklaces from Blue Nile are made of diamonds. One of the most beautiful choker necklaces is a 16 inch eternity necklace whose diamonds are set in 18K rhodium plated white gold. These round cut diamonds have a total weight of a little less than 10 carats. The necklace has a box catch with a hidden safety, and sells for $17,350. Another diamond eternity necklace with round cut diamonds set in platinum sells for $60,250. Another of the diamond choker necklaces had a total weight in diamonds of 14.27 carats and an 18K white gold hidden clasp. It sold for $20,250. An eternity diamond necklace with its diamonds set in 18K white gold sold for $8,550.
