Product Overview
Solid yellow gold runs through every link of this Franco chain, formed in Italy with a tight square V-shaped weave that gives the surface a bold, ribbon-like presence. The high-polished finish reflects light evenly, and because the metal is solid gold with no plating, that warmth is built in for the long term.
The lobster clasp closes with a satisfying click and holds securely through daily wear. Offered across a range of lengths, the chain sits comfortably at the collarbone or drops lower depending on the size chosen, and its proportions work equally well worn alone or paired with a pendant.

Precious Metals at Sophia Jewelers
Every piece is crafted from certified precious metals selected for lasting brilliance and skin-safe wear.
14k Gold (Most Popular)
58.3% pure gold. The ideal balance of durability and color richness. Available in yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold. The standard choice for fine jewelry and everyday wear.
18k Gold (Premium)
75% pure gold. Richer in color, slightly softer than 14k. Preferred for statement and heirloom pieces where purity matters most.
10k Gold (Everyday Value)
41.7% pure gold. The most durable gold alloy — ideal for active wearers. Stamped 417 on the piece.
Sterling Silver
92.5% pure silver, stamped 925. Cool-toned and versatile. Best for occasional wear; silver develops a natural patina over time.
Platinum
Naturally white, hypoallergenic, and the most durable precious metal. Recommended for those with nickel sensitivities.
Titanium & Stainless Steel
Lightweight, hypoallergenic, and virtually maintenance-free. Excellent for everyday jewelry and sensitive skin.
Lab-Grown Diamonds
Lab-grown diamonds are physically, chemically, and optically identical to mined diamonds. Same carbon crystal structure, same hardness (10 on the Mohs scale), same brilliance. The difference is origin and price: created in a controlled environment, lab-grown diamonds are typically 50-70% less expensive than comparable mined stones, meaning you get a larger, higher-quality diamond for your budget.
All Sophia Jewelers lab-grown diamonds are conflict-free by definition and independently graded by IGI or GIA using the same 4C criteria applied to mined diamonds: cut, color, clarity, and carat weight.
How to Care for Your Jewelry
Fine jewelry deserves thoughtful care. These guidelines will keep your pieces looking luminous for years.
Daily Wear
- Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, or using cleaning products
- Apply lotion, perfume, and hairspray before putting on your jewelry — chemicals can dull metal and damage stones
- Avoid wearing jewelry during gym workouts or high-contact activities
- Put jewelry on last when getting dressed — last on, first off
Cleaning at Home
Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water. Soak for 15-20 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint-free cloth. This method is safe for gold, platinum, and most gemstones. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for pearls, opals, and emeralds.
Storage
Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or compartmentalized jewelry box to prevent scratching. Keep chains flat or hung to avoid tangling. Store silver in anti-tarnish pouches to slow oxidation.
Professional Care
Have precious stone jewelry professionally cleaned and inspected once a year to check prong integrity, stone security, and clasp function. Most jewelers offer this service free of charge.

Free standard shipping on all orders over $99. Orders ship within 2–3 business days in insured packaging.

Platinum, sterling silver, titanium, and stainless steel are hypoallergenic and well-suited for sensitive skin. Yellow gold and rose gold are also generally safe for most people.
