Is this real gold or plated?

It is solid 10k yellow gold, not plated, filled or overlayed. The 10k stamp means it is about 41.7% gold, which is why it is harder-wearing than higher karats but less yellow in color.

Which length should I choose?

16 inches sits at the collarbone, 18 inches just below it, and 20 to 22 inches drape lower for layering over necklines. At 1.5mm the chain is slim, so a longer length shows more of the link pattern.

Can I wear it every day?

Yes, but the thin gauge and 10k gold are soft. Take it off for showers, swimming and gym sessions, and check the lobster clasp regularly, since that is the part owners most often report failing.

Can I put a pendant on it?

The links are small and solid, so a light pendant works, but a heavy one can pull the chain out of shape. Keep pendants light and use a small bail.

How does 10k compare with 14k gold?

10k is harder and more scratch-resistant but less yellow and less valuable per gram. 14k looks richer and holds up better over decades, while 10k keeps the cost of a real-gold chain lower.

What comes in the box?

It ships with a pouch and an Italian fashions gift box, which makes it presentable as a gift without extra wrapping.

About the Kay Italian Gold Women's Mariner Link Chain Necklace in 10k

This is a solid 10k yellow gold mariner link chain made in Italy, with diamond-cut links that catch light and a lobster clasp. It comes in four lengths from 16 to 22 inches at a slim 1.5mm width, so it reads as a delicate everyday piece rather than a statement chain. It suits shoppers who want real gold at a low karat and a light weight, and who plan to layer it or wear it daily. Against 14k chains it is softer and more prone to wear, and the thin gauge means the clasp and links need care.
