- Is this chain strong enough for a pendant?
- The soldered links hold together well, but the 1mm wire suits light to medium pendants. Heavy pendants can stretch or distort the links.
- Will the gold plating wear off?
- Plating over brass wears with friction, sweat and perfume. Expect the finish to last longer on pieces worn occasionally than on daily-wear items.
- Can I cut it to length?
- Yes. The chain comes as a 10m roll, so you cut links with jewelry cutters and finish the ends with jump rings or a clasp.
- What size are the links?
- Each link is about 14mm long, 4.5mm wide and 1mm thick, an elongated paperclip shape.
- Is it real gold?
- It is real 18K gold plating over a brass core, not solid gold. The plating gives the gold color; the strength comes from the brass.
- What can I make with a 10m roll?
- Necklaces, bracelets, anklets, bag straps and chain handles. Ten meters covers several pieces, depending on length.
