Our take on the Giani Bernini Paperclip Link 18" Chain Necklace in 18k Gold-Plated Sterling Silver

An 18-inch paperclip link chain from Giani Bernini, made of sterling silver plated in 18k gold. The open oval links give it a modern, slightly bold look that works alone or layered. It is a fashion piece, not solid gold, so the plating is the main thing to weigh. Rated 4.1 out of 5 from 116 ratings.

Best forShoppers who want a gold look without solid-gold pricesLayering with finer chainsEveryday wear with open necklinesGifting on a moderate budget
Pros
  • Paperclip links read modern and less delicate than a plain cable chain
  • 18-inch length sits at the collarbone and layers easily
  • Sterling silver base rather than brass or base metal
  • 18k gold plating gives a warm tone close to solid gold
Cons
  • Plating can wear or fade with sweat, perfume and friction
  • Sterling silver underneath can tarnish where plating thins
  • Spring-ring or lobster clasps on plated chains are a common weak point
  • Not a piece for daily shower or pool wear

Questions and answers

Is this real gold?
No. It is sterling silver with an 18k gold plating. The gold layer is thin and will wear over time, unlike solid gold.
Can I shower or swim in it?
Better not. Water, soap, chlorine and perfume speed up plating wear and tarnish on the silver underneath. Take it off first.
How does an 18-inch chain fit?
It sits at the base of the neck for most people, just below the collarbone. That length layers well over a shorter 16-inch chain.
Is it worth it over a solid gold paperclip chain?
If you want the look at a fraction of the cost, yes. If you want a piece that lasts decades without re-plating, save for solid gold.
What should I do if the plating fades?
Keep it dry and store it in a pouch to slow wear. Once plating thins, a jeweler can re-plate it, though the cost may approach the chain's price.
