- Is this chain really solid gold?
- Yes. It is 10k solid gold, not semi-hollow and not plated, and the clasp is engraved 10k. Solid 10k means the gold runs through the whole link rather than a thin shell over a hollow core.
- What is the difference between 10k and 14k gold?
- 10k is about 41.7% gold and 14k about 58.3%. 10k is harder and more scratch-resistant but slightly duller in color; 14k is richer yellow and softer. For a thin everyday chain, 10k holds up well.
- Will a 2mm curb chain hold a pendant?
- A light pendant works, but 2mm curb links are slim. A heavy pendant can stretch or distort the links over time. For pendants, a thicker chain is the safer choice.
- Which length should I pick?
- 16 inches sits at the base of the neck, 18 inches at the collarbone, 20 inches below it, and 22 to 24 inches drape over the chest. Measure an existing chain you like to match the fit.
- How should I care for a solid gold chain?
- Wipe it with a soft cloth after wear and store it separately to avoid scratches. Take it off for swimming, showering and gym sessions. A mild soap and water soak cleans curb links without harsh chemicals.
- Does the clasp have a mark?
- The lobster clasp is engraved 10k, matching the chain. That stamp is the standard way to confirm gold purity on US jewelry.
