The Melon Thorn Chainmail Necklace is a darker interpretation of watermelon colour: red like the fruit, green like the rind, black like shadow and silver like armour.

Handmade with silver-tone chainmail links, layered chains and mixed glass bead accents, this necklace brings together gothic structure and vivid colour contrast. The centre features a sharp green dagger-style pendant, framed by red, black and pale bead details. Small star charms hang from each side, adding movement and a celestial gothic finish.

Compared with a heavy statement collar, this design feels more wearable while still carrying strong visual identity. The chainmail sections add texture near the neckline, while the lower hanging chain creates a layered silhouette that works beautifully with black tops, corset styling, mesh, velvet and alternative evening outfits.

Each piece is handmade in small batches by Grizz Studio, so slight variations in chain placement, bead tone and finish are part of its individual character.

Materials & Construction

Most Grizz Studio pieces are made with stainless steel chains, alloy charms, metal spikes, rings and decorative findings. Depending on the specific design, components may include zinc alloy, aluminium alloy, plated parts, resin stones, glass crystals or acrylic decorative elements.

• Finish: Dark gothic silver — created from stainless steel, plated metal, antique silver-tone or oxidised-style components for a gothic, medieval and industrial character.
• Chainmail construction: Gothic chainmail-inspired structure using box chain, Byzantine-inspired links, orbital rings, layered chain or mixed decorative chain patterns depending on the design.
• Ring gauge: Mixed — commonly 18–20 gauge or mixed-gauge rings depending on the design.

• Approx. weight: 80–180 grams (handmade; varies per design).

Size Guide — Necklace Length

For layered necklaces, each length corresponds to one layer of the design:

• 13.8 in (~35 cm) — Choker layer: Sits close to the neck.
• 15.8 in (~40 cm) — Collarbone layer: Rests near the collarbone.
• 17.7 in (~45 cm) — Princess layer: Slightly longer layered drop.

Exact fit may vary slightly by neck size and design. As each piece is handmade, small variations in length and finish may occur.

Skin & Allergy Information

Stainless steel components are generally more skin-friendly. Because some designs use mixed metal components or plated decorative parts, we cannot guarantee every piece is 100% nickel-free or hypoallergenic. If you have sensitive skin or a known nickel allergy, we recommend wearing the piece over clothing or selecting stainless-steel-focused designs.

Care Instructions

Wipe gently with a dry soft cloth after wearing. Avoid water, perfume, sweat, chemicals and prolonged moisture exposure. Do not shower, swim or sleep while wearing. Store separately in a pouch or box to prevent scratches and tangling.
