Large Paperclip Silver Chain Rhodium Plated

Long flat rectangles set end to end at even spacing give the paperclip its shape, and here they are cut wide at 3.5mm. The chain is sterling silver 925 under a rhodium finish, which reads as a cool white rather than a warm one.

At 3.5mm the links carry real weight and hold their line against the collarbone without help from a pendant. Two lengths are offered: 60cm sits on the chest and works over an open shirt or under a jacket, while 76cm is long enough to double back for a two-strand look.

Rhodium is a hard plating and keeps its white brightness well, though abrasive polishes and pastes will scratch at it, so those are best left in the cupboard. The chain is made in Italy. Australian orders are sent insured, by Express Post.
