Permanent Jewelry Papillion Chain: Meet Jessica
CHAIN OF THE WEEK · JESSICA
By Courtney Brown, Permanent Jewelry Coordinator
Not every mixed metal chain needs to shout. Jessica whispers, with sterling silver and gold-filled links in a soft, romantic pattern.
Jessica is a permanent jewelry papillion chain (also spelled papillon, French for butterfly), with flat, oval links that lie smooth and reflect light.
What Makes Jessica a Softer Mixed Metal Chain
Mixed metals are a top fall trend, but many clients want subtle. Where paperclip links feel bold, Jessica’s flat links make a gentler mixed metal chain.
Jessica at a glance
- Design: Alternating sterling silver and gold-filled papillion links
- Lengths: By the inch, or in 5-, 15-, and 50-foot lengths
- Why we added it: We added Jessica as our softest mixed metal option, easy with warm or cool metals.
- Quality: This chain is Sunstone Certified

See the soft pattern on the Jessica product page, and order a few inches to test as necklace and anklet.

First choice: a mixed metal necklace
A necklace puts both metals next to their earrings, often the piece they switch most, so gold hoops and silver studs both look intentional. The flat links stay neat.
Second choice: a permanent jewelry anklet
Anklets are back, and as a permanent jewelry anklet, Jessica’s flat links sit neatly in and out of shoes. Leave room, since ankles swell more than wrists.

How to Style a Mixed Metal Chain This Fall (and All Year)
Soft fall layers
Jessica with a cream crew-neck sweater, or a scoop-neck tee under an open cardigan, feels cozy and polished.
Anklets aren’t just for summer
Fall anklets peek out with cropped jeans, loafers, mules, and this season’s ballet flats.
The rest of the year
A natural fit for weddings, date nights, spring florals, and every summer sandal they own.
WHAT TO SAY TO A CLIENT
“Want mixed metals, but nothing too loud? This one is soft and pretty.”

Layer Jessica With These Permanent Jewelry Chains
Pair Jessica with a gold or silver Charlie for an anklet stack, since both have flat links that lie smooth. At the neck, Paisley’s small beads add subtle sparkle above it.
3 Ways to Market This Permanent Jewelry Papillion Chain
- Book the milestone moments. Promote Jessica for wedding parties, showers, and family appointments. Two metals in one chain means everyone matches without looking the same.
- Sell the necklace-and-anklet set. Post a Jessica permanent jewelry necklace and anklet on one client, and book them as one complete look.
- Shoot it on skin. Jessica’s softness disappears on a white card, so use natural-light neck and ankle photos as your main images.
