10 inches of our signature open looped chain linked to two twist chains for adjustability. Best worn as a choker. Adjusts from 12" - 18"
The Acantha is an open looped chain formed through hand bent links. This chain has two sides - a smooth braided look, lifted gently over the skin by the spines, and a barbed look, with the spines facing outward.

Materials and Finishes
All Archaea pieces are made with solid 925 sterling silver. Our pieces are available in 3 finishes:
Finish
-
Polished Silver
Silver hand buffed to a high sheen. Will grow a natural patina with time and wear.
-
Distressed Silver
Silver oxidized in sulfur and hand distressed for higher contrast and a darkened patina.
-
Rhodium Plated
Solid silver plated with Rhodium. This prevents oxidation and provides a bright, slightly cooler silver finish.
