This isn't one uniform chain. It's a mix of different link styles—some plain, some paved with stones, and some with a black and white checkered enamel that breaks up the gold. It gives the piece a collected, asymmetrical feel.
This is a substantial paperclip-style chain made of large, oval links. Most are high-polish 14K gold, catching the light as they turn. On one side, a single link is paved with white Cubic Zirconia. On the other, you'll find a link of solid white enamel and another with a black-and-white checkered pattern. The chain rests along the collarbone, with the different textures creating visual interest as it moves.
This necklace is made from 14 Karat solid gold, which means it's 58.3% pure gold blended with other metals for strength. It won't tarnish or turn your skin green, even with daily wear. The coloured links use certified enamel, which is a type of glass fused to the gold. This process makes the black, white, and checkered patterns permanent and resistant to chipping or fading. The sparkling link is set with Cubic Zirconia for a diamond-like flash.

You'll see a lot of gold link chains, but most are uniform from end to end. This one isn't. The deliberate mix of plain gold, pavé, and enamel links gives it a custom feel, like you've collected different pieces and combined them yourself. It's a complete look on its own.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the enamel on the Gold Link Necklace chip or fade over time?
No, the certified enamel on this necklace is fused directly to the 14k gold, which makes it very durable. It won't chip from normal wear or fade from exposure to sunlight or water. This technique makes the colour a permanent part of the link, unlike paint or plating.
Can I wear my 14k Gold Link Necklace in the shower?
Yes, you can wear your 14k solid gold necklace in the shower. Solid gold and the fused enamel won't be damaged by water. We do recommend avoiding direct contact with harsh soaps or shampoos, as residue can build up over time and dull the shine of the gold and stones.
How does the Gold Link Necklace sit on the collarbone?
The necklace is designed to rest along the collarbone, as shown in the photo. Its length and the weight of the solid gold links help it lie flat against the skin or over a shirt, preventing it from twisting or flipping. This ensures the different enamel and pavé links stay visible.
