Nylon cord holds up where leather and cotton give out. It shrugs off sweat, shower steam, and the occasional rainstorm without stiffening, cracking, or bleeding color onto your skin, which makes it a good everyday carrier for a pendant you intend to wear a lot. The fine braided construction gives it a little texture and grip, so a pendant bail stays put instead of sliding around to the back of your neck.
What you get

Colors display differently from screen to screen. If you're matching a specific stone or outfit, the shades in the store are the real reference, and we're glad to hold a pendant up against a few for you.
About the cord
Nylon is a synthetic fiber, and braiding many fine strands into a single cord gives it more strength and flexibility than a solid strand of the same thickness. It doesn't absorb water the way natural fibers do, so it dries quickly and resists mildew. Colors are set into the fiber, so they hold up to regular wear better than surface-dyed materials. It is lightweight on the neck, which matters if you wear a pendant all day or sleep in it.
At 18 inches, most wearers find the cord sits at or just below the collarbone. That is the most common length for pendants because it keeps the piece visible above most necklines.
Care is simple: rinse with mild soap and water if it gets grimy, and let it air dry. Keep it away from open flame, since nylon melts.
