Rope Chain Necklaces

14K gold rope chain necklaces with links twisted into a continuous spiral, like a rope. There are three widths, 1.7, 2.2 and 3.3 mm, each with a lobster clasp.

How to choose a rope chain

  • Width. 1.7 mm is fine and easy to layer, 2.2 mm is a versatile middle, and 3.3 mm shows the twist most clearly.
  • Length. At 18 inches a rope chain sits at or just below the collarbone; choose 20 to 24 inches to let it fall lower on the chest.

Questions

Does a rope chain layer well?

Yes. Pair a fine rope chain with a smooth one, such as a box or round snake chain, and choose lengths about 2 inches apart.

Rope vs Singapore chain?

Both are twisted. A rope chain twists its links into a continuous spiral; a Singapore chain twists curb links into a softer spiral.

Does the length include the clasp?

Yes. Length is measured end to end, including the clasp.
