it works naturally with chore coats, overshirts, and denim, and avoids the dressiness of a traditional lobster clasp, reinforcing a rugged-casual identity.","pendant_scale_and_layering":"Measuring just 12 mm tall by 8.5 mm wide, the onyx pendant stays low-profile enough to layer comfortably under a shirt collar or to pair with a longer chain without competing for attention, making it a subtle anchor piece rather than a statement pendant.","midi34_s_domestic_production":"As a product made in Canada by a Quebec-based label, the necklace carries narrative weight for consumers who seek out local craftsmanship over anonymous imports — a story that can elevate the perception of a simple pendant into an intentional, values-aligned choice.","collarbone_length_positioning":"At 21.75 inches, the chain brings the pendant directly to the collarbone on most men — the sweet spot for sitting visibly above a crewneck sweater or t-shirt neckline while still being long enough to disappear under an open collar for a hidden-worn look."}},"stainless_steel_performance":{"title":"How stainless steel jewelry holds up over time","entries":{"scratch_resistance":"With a Vickers hardness around HV 160–180 (roughly 5.5 on the Mohs scale), 316L is over twice as hard as sterling silver (Mohs 2.5–3), meaning the pendant and chain are far less prone to accumulating visible scratches from desk contact, jacket zippers, or everyday knocks, preserving a clean, minimalist look longer.","no_plating_to_wear_off":"Because stainless steel is a solid alloy with color through its entire mass rather than a plated layer, the silver-toned finish will not fade, rub off, or reveal a different metal underneath over time, unlike white gold (rhodium-plated) or silver-plated brass, so the necklace retains its uniform appearance even after years of friction against clothing.","tarnish_resistance_vs_sterling_silver":"Unlike sterling silver, which reacts with sulfur compounds in air and sweat to form a black tarnish within weeks of exposure, 316L stainless steel is inherently tarnish-resistant due to its chromium oxide passivation layer, so the necklace maintains its polished silver-grey appearance through humidity, rain, and daily perspiration with nothing more than an occasional rinse.","tensile_strength_and_chain_durability":"Annealed 316L stainless steel typically exhibits a tensile strength near 515 MPa, roughly 70% higher than the ~300 MPa of sterling silver, so the chain is inherently more resistant to stretching and snapping from the weight of the pendant or accidental snags—a practical security advantage for a piece worn daily.","corrosion_resilience_in_sweat_and_water":"The 2–3% molybdenum in 316L significantly boosts pitting resistance against chlorides—the same salt in sweat and swimming pools—so unlike silver or lower-grade stainless steels that may develop micro-pitting or rust spots over time, this necklace can be worn during exercise, at the beach, or in the shower without long-term degradation of the metal surface."}}}},"handle":"jacob-necklace-16312-2003","storefront_path":"/en/men-accessories/jewellery/necklaces/jacob-necklace--16312-2003","storefront_url":"https://ai.simons.ca/en/men-accessories/jewellery/necklaces/jacob-necklace--16312-2003"}}
