A relaxed style encapsuled in a jewellery piece that exudes masculinity. Whether you wear them as they are or add a pendant, men's necklaces are always on trend.
Men's chains come in a variety of styles and sizes, allowing men to choose the most appropriate option based on their own personal style. Some chains are thin and discreet, making them ideal for layered (layered) wear or in combination with other jewellery, while others are thicker and more visible, making a statement in their own right.
How do I choose my men's chain size?
You can choose the size of the chain depending on the purpose for which you wear it or according to personal preference. If you want a specific length, it's important to measure around your neck and compare with standard length tables to choose the right size.
What are the most suitable materials for men's chains?
The most suitable materials for making chains worn by men are gold, silver, titanium, stainless steel and leather.
What is the difference between a chain and a necklace?
Both the necklace and the chain are neckline accessories, but there are a few key differences between them. A chain is made up of a single chain or loop, without additional accessories such as stones or pearls, making it more subtle than a necklace. A necklace is a piece of jewellery made up of several elements, such as stones or other materials, which are linked together to form a chain or loop.
How can I properly close and open a gold chain to avoid damage to the clasp?
To properly open and close a gold chain, make sure you handle the clasp carefully. When fastening, place the opposite end into the clasp and secure it in place. Careful handling of the clasp helps prevent damage and keep the chain in good condition over the long term.
How do I care for my gold chain?
To care for your gold chain you can start by using a special cleaning solution or warm water and a soft brush to remove any dirt or dust accumulated on the jewellery. When not wearing your gold chain, store it in a dry, dark place, such as a drawer or jewellery box, to avoid wear and tear from exposure to air or sunlight. Avoid wearing the chain during sports or strenuous physical activities that can lead to wear or deformation. In addition, check it periodically for any defects or wear and, if necessary, go to a jeweller to have it professionally repaired or cleaned.

Gold Chains for Men: A Brief History
Men's chains were among the first pieces of jewellery created and have been worn since ancient times. Initially, they were made from easily found natural materials like wood, stone, feathers, but later they were crafted from materials like gold, often adorned with precious stones. Regardless of their style and construction, chains were worn by men to signal their status. Only later, almost to the present day, did these pieces of jewellery become a way to convey values, personality traits, style, and refinement.
