I have several box chains in a couple of sizes. They are super strong. I have a 30 inch box chain that has been caught on things and stretched when I pulled away, but it never broke.
Enjoy wearing your new pendant. Garnets are beautiful.

Love that pendant!
The web site for James Avery stores has a nice selection of 14k gold chains. No box chains but their spiga chains are very sturdy.

Squirrel Lover, I love your pendant including the size. You want people to see it. It is a realistic size for a garnet. In CZ everyone would think it was fake.

@CAcableGirl2 ITA. Always the box chain. Second choice would be the wheat chain. OP, Enjoy your beautiful gift!

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
@Squirrel Lover So pretty. Take it w/ you to choose box or wheat chain. Jeweler can determine the weight of chain by weight of pendant.

Thank you all for your advice. I chose a 2.8 gram box chain in 16 inches. That should be strong. It is 0.8mm. Thanks again for your advice.

I think you made a great choice in style and weight of the chain. I hope you enjoy it.

@Squirrel Lover,Just wanted to add that pendants have small chains to keep the price down. The chain can rarely stand up to daily wear, and many ladies wear their necklace all the time.
