It features a polished silver-tone stainless steel construction with two thin snake chains that converge at an oval sliding bead, creating a Y-shaped silhouette with two dangling chain tails. The necklace measures 19.25 inches in length and is adjustable via the sliding buckle.","url":"https://www.simons.ca/en/men-accessories/jewellery/necklaces/bolo-lariat-chain--8434-22602?colourId=0","brand":"Le 31","condition":"new","product_category":"men accessories > jewellery > necklaces","material":"Stainless steel","age_group":"adult","image_url":"https://imagescdn.simons.ca/images/8434/22602/7/A1_2.jpg","additional_image_urls":[],"images":[{"id":"img-1784703006045-0","url":"https://imagescdn.simons.ca/images/8434/22602/7/A1_2.jpg","alt_text":"Bolo lariat chain product image (primary)","position":1,"attributes":{"other":{"summary":"Studio product shot on a plain white background with soft diffuse lighting and minimal shadows; necklace is centered and vertically oriented.","observations":[{"key":"Shot composition","kind":"feature","value":"Centered vertical composition showing the full visible length of the necklace from the upper chains to the dangling tails against a seamless white background.","regions":[],"evidence_status":"direct"},{"key":"Lighting and reflections","kind":"feature","value":"Soft, even lighting with subtle specular highlights on the slider bead and chains producing clear reflective spots and gentle shadows beneath the slider.","regions":[],"evidence_status":"direct"},{"key":"Background","kind":"feature","value":"Uniform off-white backdrop with no props or packaging visible.","regions":[],"evidence_status":"direct"}]},"colors":[{"name":"polished silver","part":"chain and slider","regions":[{"x":0.12,"y":0.02,"width":0.76,"height":0.92,"confidence":"medium"}],"subject":"product","description":"Uniform polished metallic silver finish with glossy reflective highlights and small specular reflections.","sampled_hex":"#C4C4C4","estimated_hex":"#C0C0C0"}],"product":{"summary":"A polished silver-tone bolo lariat necklace shown front-facing with a smooth oval sliding bead and two thin snake-style chains forming a Y, ending in two narrow capped chain tails.","observations":[{"key":"Upper chains","kind":"feature","value":"Two thin, flexible snake-style chains form a symmetrical V from the top edges toward the center slider; they appear uniform in thickness and metallic finish.","regions":[{"x":0.12,"y":0.02,"width":0.35,"height":0.5,"confidence":"high"},{"x":0.53,"y":0.02,"width":0.35,"height":0.5,"confidence":"high"}],"evidence_status":"direct"},{"key":"Slider bead","kind":"feature","value":"A polished, rounded oval slider bead with a glossy reflective surface and an opening at its bottom where the dangling chains pass through.","regions":[{"x":0.445,"y":0.28,"width":0.11,"height":0.11,"confidence":"high"}],"evidence_status":"direct"},{"key":"Dangling tails","kind":"feature","value":"Two narrow snake-style chain tails exit the slider and hang vertically with small cylindrical end caps on each tail.","regions":[{"x":0.47,"y":0.36,"width":0.06,"height":0.56,"confidence":"high"}],"evidence_status":"direct"},{"key":"End caps","kind":"feature","value":"Tiny cylindrical metal end caps terminate each dangling chain; they are slightly brighter than the chain and reflective.","regions":[{"x":0.485,"y":0.87,"width":0.01,"height":0.03,"confidence":"high"},{"x":0.505,"y":0.93,"width":0.01,"height":0.02,"confidence":"high"}],"evidence_status":"direct"}]},"packaging":{"observations":[]},"schema_version":2,"coordinate_space":{"units":"normalized","origin":"top_left"}},"variant_ids":["4661216"]}],"price":"29 CAD","sale_price":"29 CAD","availability":"in_stock","listing_has_variations":"false","variants":[{"sku":"4661216","url":"https://www.simons.ca/en/men-accessories/jewellery/necklaces/bolo-lariat-chain--8434-22602?colourId=7","image":{"id":"img-variant-4661216","url":"https://imagescdn.simons.ca/images/8434/22602/7/A1_2.jpg","alt_text":"Bolo lariat chain - Silver - ONE SIZE variant image","position":1,"variant_ids":["4661216"]},"price":{"value":29,"currency":"CAD"},"title":"Bolo Lariat Chain - Silver - One Size","option1":"Silver","option2":"ONE SIZE","image_url":"https://imagescdn.simons.ca/images/8434/22602/7/A1_2.jpg","variant_id":"4661216","availability":"in_stock"}],"item_group_title":"Bolo Lariat Chain","size_system":"US","gender":"male","is_digital":"false","q_and_a":[{"a":"The sliding metallic buckle is designed to hold its position once adjusted, similar to other well-crafted slider mechanisms that stay put during normal movement [5].

The sliding buckle design leaves the chain ends free (typically with a small tag to prevent slipping), so you can slide a pendant onto the chain before the buckle or attach one to the end [5]. Just ensure the pendant's loop fits over the chain.","q":"Can the chain accommodate adding a small pendant, or is the sliding buckle fixed in a way that prevents attaching additional charms?"},{"a":"No, stainless steel is highly resistant to tarnish and discoloration.
