Yes! Everything I sell is SOLID sterling silver with the exception of the one heavy goddess pendant which is cast in solid bronze.

Yes and no. The chains are available as an optional add-on so that you only pay for one if you need it and can select the style and length that you want.

All of the chains are solid .925 sterling silver and have a spring-ring clasp. The box chain is 1mm thick and the cable is slightly more dainty.

I always test things before I sell them and am happy to say that I have been wearing my "test" cable chain for well over a year now 24/7 and it has held up very well! That being said if you want your new necklace to last I definitely recommend taking it off at night before you go to bed. Same with earrings. Sleeping in jewelry is not a good idea - I only do it for testing purposes.
