Loophole alert- plain chain is very plain-if you hang a brooch or pendant (removable) off of it and you shouldn't have any problems. Pyro- sister to heralds

That is a real pity, as if my husband were to wear a jewelled or decorated chain in England it would be considered to be pretentious and inaccurate, as it is not seen in portraits as far as I can remember.He will probably have to go without altogether in that case, as I don't want to spend money on something he can't wear here.
