12ct Yellow Gold Filled 1.0mm Round Curb Chain With Bead Station Loose Unhallmarked

Description

This 1.0mm wide 12ct Yellow Gold Filled curb chain with bead station, also known as satellite chain is ideal for showcasing small pendants and charms or wear on its own. Each link is approximately 1.3mm in length.

This chain is supplied loose, allowing the length and catch type to be customised while helping to reduce metal waste and scrap.

A curb chain is a type of chain style where each oval link is slightly twisted and flattened so the links lie flat against each other.

A beaded or satellite chain, often used interchangeably with bead chain, typically refers to a more decorative style featuring ornate, faceted, or patterned bead designs.

Gold filled jewellery is also known as rolled gold or gold bonded and is created by mechanically bonding a layer of gold to a layer of base metal – usually brass. The outer gold layer must be at least 1/20 of the overall metal content by weight, and is therefore a much thicker and more durable alternative to gold plating. Unlike gold plated metal, gold filled can be soldered using 9ct gold easy solder.

This chain is nickel-free and it is supplied without a UK hallmark due to its finished weight.

Please note:

• Gold Filled chain can be soldered using low-heat soldering techniques, as excessive heat may damage or discolour the bonded gold layer.
