Half Tennis Paperclip Necklace

Two chains. One necklace. The downtown party piece that refuses to pick a side.

The Half Tennis Paperclip Necklace is the kind of tennis necklace that makes the editor at the next table glance twice. On one side, a dense ribbon of baguette-cut cubic zirconia stones (the cut Vogue keeps calling "the new diamond") set claw-to-claw in a single sparkling row. On the other, chunky oval paperclip necklace links in polished light yellow gold — the chain everyone in your feed is already wearing, only here it's anchored to something far more interesting.

At 35 cm, it lands as a true gold choker necklace: tight at the base of the throat, framing the collarbones, catching every overhead light at the dinner table. Mixed-media, asymmetric, deliberately off-balance — this is the piece you'll hand-pick when the dress code is "editorial" and the playlist is loud.

Style Features

• Asymmetric half-and-half design: baguette tennis necklace on one side, chunky gold paperclip necklace on the other, meeting at the front-center.
• Baguette-cut clear cubic zirconia stones in claw-prong settings — rectangular, elongated, full-spectrum sparkle.
• Polished light yellow gold IP plating over stainless steel: tarnish-resistant, sweat-safe, daily-wear ready.
• True 35 cm choker length sits at the base of the throat — not draped low, not strangling tight.
• Mixed link construction reads as tennis chain necklace + paperclip chain necklace rolled into one statement piece.

Styling Guide

Pair with a deep black silk camisole and a slick high pony for downtown party energy. Layer with a longer dainty pendant for editorial dimension, or wear solo with a crisp white shirt for the Vogue-cover dinner-out look. Works against navy, burgundy, emerald — anything that lets the gold pop.
