Is this chain solid gold or plated?

It is solid 14K rose gold throughout, so the color runs through the metal rather than sitting on a coating. That means it can be polished and repaired without wearing through to a base metal.

Will an 18-inch chain fit me?

18 inches is the most common women's necklace length and usually rests at the collarbone. It sits higher on larger necks and lower on smaller ones, so check against a chain you already own.

Can I wear a pendant on it?

Yes. The cable links are open loops, so most pendant bails and jump rings slide on. Keep pendants light, since fine cable links can stretch under heavy weight.

How does it compare with a box chain?

A cable chain is more flexible and shows distinct round links; a box chain is denser, stronger and lies flatter. Cable suits pendants and layering, box suits a cleaner look and heavier pendants.

How should I care for rose gold?

Wipe it with a soft cloth after wear and store it dry and separate from other chains to avoid scratches. Avoid chlorine and harsh cleaners, which dull the copper-rich alloy over time.

Does it come with a clasp?

Yes, it has a clasp at the back for fastening. Check that the clasp closes firmly before wearing, since fine chain clasps are the usual point of failure.
