Let us take a moment to appreciate the unsung hero of the jewellery world: the chain. Not flashy. Not needy. Just quietly doing the work. And this, my friends, is an excellent one.
Meet the Sterling Silver Wheat Chain, also known by its far more romantic Italian alias, the Spiga chain (because everything sounds sexier in Italian). Beautifully woven from half-round wire, this chain has a softly structured, almost fabric-like feel that is smooth, fluid, and deeply satisfying to touch. Frankly, it’s a bit of a sensory delight.
✨ Why the Wheat Chain Is a Classic (And Not Boring)
The wheat/spiga weave is strong, elegant, and endlessly wearable. It adds quiet sophistication to a pendant, but is also confident enough to be worn entirely on its own, like a minimalist who drinks good wine and doesn’t explain themselves.
-
2mm wide – the second heaviest version of this style
-
Substantial without being shouty
-
Perfect balance of strength and grace
-
Lies beautifully against the skin (no hair-pulling nonsense)
This is a genuinely brilliant all-purpose chain — everyday wear, layering, pendants, or simply looking like someone who has excellent taste.
📏 Sizes & Options
-
Available in lengths from 16" to 30"
-
Also available as a mask/glasses chain, because practicality can absolutely be chic
🧼 Sterling Silver Care (A Gentle Reminder)
Sterling Silver is marvellous, but it does like to be looked after — rather like a houseplant with opinions.
-
Ensure jewellery is clean and dry before storing
-
Clean after wearing with warm water, then dry with a soft cloth
-
Store in an airtight container with a piece of chalk or a silica pack
(yes, those little bags from shoe boxes — finally, their moment)
Moisture, oils, perfume and general life residue will accelerate tarnishing, so a tiny bit of care goes a long way.
🚚 SHIPPING (Because Anticipation Is Half the Joy)
Yes, darlings, I dispatch as soon as my little hands can package your treasure — but remember, I’m a boutique, not Bezos.
If I have your piece to hand, it will be dispatched the same day, but the vast majority comes to me first from my wondrous silver and goldsmiths on order.
UK Shipping:
Expect your sparkles in 5–7 working days. Think of it as foreplay for the soul.
International Shipping:
Anywhere from 5 to 30 working days, depending on customs, the mood of your postal service, and whether Mercury is in retrograde. Import taxes and customs delays are sadly beyond my control.
If you’ve ever put on a necklace and thought, “Oh. Yes. That’s the one.” —
This is very much that chain.
