  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024
    To tell if your gold chain is real, hold a magnet close to it. Since gold is non-magnetic, any noticeable attraction will likely indicate that your piece is a gold-toned metal or features gold plating over a layer of magnetic base metal. You can also have an experienced jeweler or appraiser inspect your chain if you wish. Shop a variety of gold chains on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    The cost of a gold chain is dependent on brand, condition, and type of gold. On 1stDibs, a gold chain costs anywhere between $185 and $430,000.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Some people like to DIY gold chain belts by acquiring a chain then making it into a belt with lobster claws and jump rings. The only tool you need is a pair of pliers to put it all together. These projects get their inspiration from iconic brands like Chanel who made chain belts extremely popular from the 1990s onward. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of vintage and contemporary gold chain belts from designers like Chanel, Gucci and Versace.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024
    To tell if a gold chain is real, first try placing it near a magnet. If you sense a strong attraction between the magnet and the chain, it is unlikely to be solid gold. Another way to test is to gently scratch an old ceramic plate with your chain. A black streak will usually indicate that the piece is made of a metal other than gold. Alternatively, you can have a jeweler or certified appraiser inspect your chain. On 1stDibs, explore a variety of gold chains from some of the world's top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021
    The best gold chain for a pendant is a matter of preference. While choosing a chain make sure that the chain is not too thick for the size of the pendant, and it is strong enough. Wheat chains and box chains are good choices due to their sturdiness and flexibility. On 1stDibs, you can find a variety of gold chain and pendant options to choose from.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024
    Real gold chains will typically display markings that represent the purity of the gold used to produce them. In some cases, pieces may list the karat weight with marks like 18K or 14K. On other pieces, you may see the metal purity represented by a three-digit hallmark shown on its own or inside a hexagon. The most common markings in this system are 585 for 14-karat and 750 for 18-karat. If you need assistance determining whether your chain is real gold, a certified appraiser or experienced jeweler can assist you. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of gold chains.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Gold chains have been popular among men for centuries. In some cultures, it's a sign of wealth or status, and in others, it's just a fashion choice.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    What style of gold chain is the strongest is largely a matter of personal opinion. Generally, chains formed of interlocking links are strong because they do not bend. Examples include Cuban, mariner, figaro, rope and cable chains. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of gold chains.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Real gold chains are supposed to be heavy. Pure gold is heavy due to its high density. If you are unsure about the gold content in your piece, you can take it to be appraised. You can also shop a collection of expertly vetted gold jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    What a good size of gold chain is for a man varies. The average length of men's chains is around 20 inches.

    Yes, some Louis Vuitton chains are real gold. The French luxury fashion house offers a line of fine jewelry with chains made of 18-karat white, yellow and rose gold. In addition, Louis Vuitton has a costume jewelry collection. Pieces from this line are generally not real gold. On 1stDibs, find an assortment of Louis Vuitton necklaces.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    To tell if a 14K gold chain is real, hold a magnet up to it. Real gold isn't magnetic, so if the magnet sticks, the necklace is unlikely to be real 14-karat gold. When in doubt, have a certified appraiser or experienced jeweler evaluate your jewelry. On 1stDibs, explore a variety of gold chains.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024
    To know if your 14K gold chain is real, place a magnet near it. Gold isn't magnetic, so if you notice an attraction, your chain may be gold-plated or crafted from an entirely gold-toned metal. If the magnet test is inconclusive, a certified appraiser or experienced jeweler can help you determine whether your chain is gold. On 1stDibs, shop a range of gold chains and other gold jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
