Gold Chains Buying Guide

A quality gold chain is one of the most versatile jewelry investments you can make. Here's everything you need to know to choose well.

Chain Construction

Solid chains: Gold throughout every link. Heavier, more durable, higher value.

Hollow chains: Links have empty space inside. Lighter, more affordable, can dent.

Semi-solid: Middle ground—some structure inside links. Compromise option.

For daily wear, solid construction holds up best. Hollow chains work for occasional wear or when weight is a concern.

Buying Checklist

Check the stamp: 14K, 18K, 585, 750 indicate gold content.

Examine the clasp: Often the weak point. Lobster claws are reliable.

Compare weights: Heavier = more gold. Ask about gram weight.

Inspect links: Look for consistent construction, no rough spots.

Test flexibility: Chain should move smoothly without kinking.

Verify return policy: Chains need to be worn to judge. Buy from sellers who accept returns.
