A flat filed round trace chain is made from round-shaped links that have been flattened and smoothed using a filing process. This creates a sleek, even surface that reflects light, giving the chain a clean, polished and classic look.

Due to the nature of the metal, this chain is supplied without a UK hallmark.

A rhodium-plated chain consists of a base metal coated with a thin layer of rhodium. The rhodium is applied through an electroplating process, giving the piece the appearance of solid rhodium while keeping it more affordable.

Please note:

• This chain is plated. Avoid using harsh cleaning products and do not solder, as this may damage or remove the plating.
• The jump ring connecting the clasp is supplied unsoldered. Following manufacturer guidelines, soldering is not recommended, as it could damage the mechanism.

This chain also receive a protective barrier coating before the rhodium, gold, or silver plating is applied. This intermediate layer creates a barrier between the base metal and the final plating, enhancing adhesion, improving durability and helping to extend the life of the finish.

Crafted from high-quality recycled brass and bronze and finished using recycled metals in the plating process, these chains offer a more sustainable choice without compromising on quality or style.
