The top of this ring isn't a solid band. We've set a section of curb chain directly into the gold, so it sits flush with the surface. It’s a detail you feel as much as you see, giving texture to an otherwise smooth, polished piece.
The Upmost ring is built on a flat, polished gold band. At the top, we’ve cut away a section and inlaid a length of curb chain. The links are tight and uniform, sitting flush between two raised gold shoulders that hold it in place. The rest of the shank is completely smooth, with a bright finish that catches light on its flat surface and sharp edges.
We make this from solid 14 karat gold, not plated or filled. It’s 58.3% pure gold mixed with alloys for strength, which means it’s tough enough to handle daily life without you having to worry about it. The colour is solid all the way through, so it won’t fade or rub off over time. And because it's solid 14K gold, it's very unlikely to cause skin sensitivities. It's made to be worn, not kept in a box.
- Material: 14 Karat Solid Gold

People who like the look of a chain but want the solid feel of a band often choose this one. The inset design means you get the texture and pattern of a curb chain without any of the pinching or snagging. It’s a comfortable, low-profile way to wear a chain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the chain on the 14K gold Upmost Chain Ring catch on my clothes?
No, the chain on the Upmost ring is unlikely to catch on clothes. The curb chain is set down into the band, making the top surface almost completely flush. This inset design prevents the individual links from snagging on sweaters or other delicate fabrics during everyday wear.
Is it safe to shower or wash my hands while wearing the Upmost Chain Ring?
Yes, you can safely shower and wash your hands with your solid 14K gold ring on. Water won't harm the gold, and regular cleaning with mild soap and water will actually help keep it clean. Just be sure to dry it thoroughly to maintain its shine.
How does the flat band of the Upmost Chain Ring affect sizing?
The Upmost Chain Ring has a flat, uniform band, so it fits true to your standard ring size. Unlike a very wide or comfort-fit band that might require sizing up or down, you can confidently order the size you normally wear for a band of this classic width.
