Jewellery manufactured from silver has always been popular and at one stage enjoyed more success than gold and was more valuable than gold! Nowadays silver acts as the smaller cousin to gold. It has much of the same properties as gold without the expensive price tag. It is mainly because of this reason that silver is so versatile and can be used to manufacture almost any type of jewellery. For centuries now chokers have been fashionable across many different cultures and sterling silver chokers are enjoying a revival in interest today.

Unlike pendants chokers are worn tight up against the neck and literally sit on the part of the neck that meets the shoulders. As a type of jewellery chokers are extremely versatile and they can be made from almost any type of material from gold
or silver to ribbon and velvet. They have always been a favourite for parties and because they can be made from such diverse materials it is possible to have your choker custom made.

Sterling silver is an extremely popular material that many manufacturers in the jewellery industry utilise on a daily basis. Sterling silver chokers can be as bold and dramatic or as simple and understated as your personal taste dictates. They can be made from plain silver with different designs embossed on them or to further enhance the piece many chokers are set with gemstones or crystals. Rhinestones are a popular choice for this. One of the most important factors to take into account when buying a choker is comfort. Make sure that the straps which fasten the choker are adjustable, there’s no point in looking fantastic if you can hardly breathe!
