Description
Solid yellow gold and a precise Franco weave come together in a chain that earns its place in any collection. Four rows of interlocking, angled links create a flat, ribbon-like surface that lies smooth against the skin and reflects light with every movement, finished to a high polish that keeps the look clean and refined.
An adjustable sliding mechanism means the fit is never fixed, letting the chain settle exactly where you want it. The lobster clasp closes firmly and stays closed, and the Italian origin of the piece speaks to a standard of construction that Franco chain wearers have come to expect from that tradition.

What affects the price of franco chains?
Metal, width, length and construction set the price. A 14K gold chain costs more than 10K, sterling silver or stainless steel, and wider, longer or solid chains use more metal than thin or semi-solid ones. Use the Price filter on this page to set a budget.
Which franco chain styles are most popular?
Diamond-cut sterling silver franco chains lead the list. Thin 1.25mm to 2mm widths are at the front, followed by stainless steel and 14K yellow gold chains. Adjustable 10K gold chains with a 2 inch extender also show up often.
What width of franco chain should I choose?
Choose 1mm to 1.6mm for a pendant, 3mm or wider alone. Fine widths sit quietly and carry a pendant without crowding it. Chains from 3mm to 4mm read as a statement piece on their own. Compare box chains for a smoother, flatter link.
What does diamond-cut mean on a franco chain?
Diamond-cut means the links have tiny faceted surfaces. Those flat planes are cut into the metal to catch light and add sparkle. It is a finish on the chain itself, not a gemstone, so a diamond-cut chain has no actual diamonds.
How do I pick the right franco chain length?
Pick 16 to 18 inches for close to the collarbone. 20 to 24 inches falls lower on the chest and suits bolder widths or pendants. Several chains here have a 2 inch extender or adjustable length, which lets you fine-tune the fit. Browse all chains for more options.
