Necklace Chokers

What's the best metal for a hoop choker/necklace--real silver or silvertone metal? Is real silver too soft?

I'm wanting to order a hoop choker/necklace - the kind that keeps its circular shape. I have ordered some pendants made of natural stones and they are a bit heavy. I'm not sure if real silver will lose its shape and/or be too heavy on its own to wear comfortably. I usually try to get the real thing whenever possible - but it just might not be the best in this case.

1. Some people are allergic to some alloys. There is less of a chance for an allergy to real silver.
2. Sterling Silver 925 should hold up just fine. Make sure it is solid - a hallow necklace will cause problems supporting a heavy pendant. Good Luck!
3. Its best to get it done in sterling silver. Dhruvika http://www.myjewelersplace.com
