Our take on the GLD Diamond Box Link Chain Gold Luxury Necklace

A 9mm box-link chain from The GLD Shop, plated in 18k yellow gold and set with hand-set colorless stones along the links. It comes in 18, 20, 22 and 24 inch lengths with a box clasp, and the 22 inch version is the one most often stocked. It is costume jewelry with a plated finish, not solid gold, so it is priced as fashion jewelry rather than fine jewelry.

Best forShoppers who want a bold gold look without solid-gold pricesEveryday wear with streetwear or layered chainsGifts for adults who like iced-out jewelryPeople who want a longer 22 or 24 inch chain
Pros
  • 9mm box links give a substantial, visible look
  • 18k yellow gold plating over a base metal
  • Hand-set colorless stones along the chain
  • Four lengths from 18 to 24 inches
  • Box clasp sits flush against the neck
Cons
  • Plated finish, not solid 18k gold, so it can wear or fade with heavy use

  • Keep it away from water, perfume and sweat to protect the plating
  • 9mm is heavy and loud for understated outfits

What reviewers say

Owners of GLD Shop chains generally describe a solid feel and a bright gold tone for the price, and the box link is one of the brand's more popular styles. The recurring complaints are plating that dulls after months of daily wear and stones that can loosen.

Pros
  • Looks heavier and more expensive than the price suggests
  • Bright yellow gold tone out of the box
  • Comfortable box clasp that stays closed
Cons
  • Gold plating can fade with daily wear and sweat
  • Stones may loosen or dull over time
  • Heavy for some wearers at 9mm

Questions and answers

Is this real gold or gold plated?
It is 18k gold plated over a base metal, not solid gold. The plating gives the yellow gold color but will wear over time with heavy use.
Are the stones real diamonds?
The listing calls them diamonds, but at this price point they are hand-set accent stones rather than certified diamonds. Expect sparkle, not a diamond grading report.
Which length should I pick?
18 inches sits at the collarbone, 20 inches just below it, and 22 or 24 inches hang over a shirt. The 22 inch is the middle option and the one most commonly stocked.
Can I wear it in the shower or at the gym?
No. Water, sweat and perfume speed up plating wear. Take it off before showering, swimming or working out and wipe it dry after wear.
How does it compare with a solid gold box chain?
A solid 18k box chain in this width costs many times more and can be repaired and resold. This one is fashion jewelry: it looks similar but will not last decades.
When is the best time to buy?
The GLD Shop runs frequent sales around holidays and launches. Check the price history here before buying rather than paying full price.
