The Snake Chain

Our snake chains are astounding. Made of round silver plates, they are slightly curved in the middle, where one round plate meets the other, to form a smooth, snakeskin-like appearance. The plates are tightly joined together, creating a continuous effect and giving the impression that the chain is made only of one piece. There is no metal string used to hold the plates together, as you see in other types of chains. And even though the plates are so tight, the 925 silver chain is still highly flexible. Its smooth surface makes it quite elegant so it can be worn with a fancy outfit or for a special occasion.

The Rolo Chain

Our rolo chains consist of round and oval links, which are linked together alternatively. They are small and thick and have flat insides. Because of the thickness of the links’ girth, this type of chain can seem sturdier and a bit heavier than others. It is a magnificent item that can be worn casually as the wearer pleases. Additionally, it looks great as a silver bracelet, and it can be a great accessory when paired with a beautiful and sleek watch. You will also notice that this type of 925 silver chain is often used on other accessories such as earrings.

The Bead Chain

Our bead chains are pretty and simple. They are made of small pierced spheres, held together by thin metal lines. Generally, bead chains can be heavier or lighter, depending on the sphere itself. If the sphere is hollow, then the chain will be light. Respectively, the chain will be heavier if the spheres fill and are solid. There are multiple types of bead chains depending on how spheres are placed. Spheres can be placed right after another or further apart at regular or irregular distances. This type of chain is the signature accessory for soldiers, as they are used to hold metal plates with identification numbers.

The Box (Venetian) Chain

Venetian chains, also known as silver box chains, are simple yet unique jewelry items. Generally, they are preferred by men because of their geometric, simple, and classic appearance. The square plates may look a little bit bulky on a woman, but they are nonetheless sleek and smooth. It is the perfect type of chain to choose if you want to gift a jewelry item to a child because it is a lot sturdier than other chain types.

The Wheat Chain

The wheat chain can be described as a perfectly symmetric rope type of chain. It might seem like it’s a chain made of square links if you look at it from the side. However, it is not as this beautiful type of chain consists of twisted oval and oval strand links. The wheat chain can be used on both 925 silver necklaces and bracelets alike. In our store, you can find four lengths in necklaces.

Spring ring and lobster clasps

We use spring rings and lobster clasps for our 925 silver bracelets and necklaces. The spring ring clasp is made of a ring that has a tiny spring on the inside. When the ring is opened, a loop goes through it, and when released, the spring closes, making for a perfectly sturdy clasp. On the other hand, the lobster clasp has a trigger that, when pulled back, opens the clasp. There are usually used for beaded chains.

Depending on the type of chain and clasp you prefer, you can choose one or more of the many silver necklaces found on our website. Browse through our wholesale silver chains and carefully look at each one to see what best fits your style.
