- Is this chain solid gold or hollow?
- It is solid 14K white gold, not hollow or plated. That makes it more durable for everyday wear than hollow chains of similar width.
- Will the white gold color fade?
- White gold is rhodium-plated to give it a bright white finish. With daily wear the plating can wear thin, and a jeweler can re-plate it to restore the color.
- What length is it, and where does it sit?
- It is 24 inches long, so it sits below the collarbone, over a collar or at the neckline. That length works well with a pendant or worn alone.
- Can I wear a pendant on it?
- Yes. The curb links and clasp can hold a pendant, and the 24-inch length gives a longer drop. Check that your pendant's bail fits the chain width.
- How does it compare with a box chain or rope chain?
- A curb chain has flattened, interlocking links that lie flat and show more surface shine. Box and rope chains are rounder and catch light differently, but curb is the flatter, more classic look.
- How should I care for it?
- Keep it away from chlorine and harsh chemicals, and wipe it with a soft cloth after wear. Store it separately so the links do not tangle or scratch.
