Description
* Total length of this chain is 16"
* This necklace weighs 28 grams
* The large links measure approximately 0.9" x 0.75"
* Due to the handmade nature of this piece no two chains will be identical, the hammer marks and subtle differences in link shape add to the unique character of this design.
* Handmade with Argentium Sterling silver - see below for more about this unique metal!
This chunky and unique necklace was handmade with solid, nickel free sterling silver. The large links are quite heavy and substantial. I used 12 gauge sterling silver to create them, hand forging and hammering them into rough oval shapes that are artfully textured and polished to a high reflective shine. Each tiny link in this chain is also made by hand with sterling silver as I wanted a chain that would match it perfectly and balance the heavier links. The toggle is also handmade and I stamped the quality tag of Argentium Sterling Silver which is the brand of silver I used to create this whole chain. Argentium Sterling silver is 94% pure silver so it's higher grade than traditional sterling silver which is only 92.5% silver. Argentium sterling silver is also nickel free, hypoallergenic, brighter white in tone and tarnish resistant so you will enjoy how low maintenance this beautiful chain is! The total length is 16" long and the toggle is secure as I made the bar more than twice the length of the ring so it won't slip out on accident.
