Fashion Jewelry Chain Bracelets

When you’re sifting through your classic gold bracelets, diamond bracelets or other elegant links to wear for an evening out, remember that a unique fashion chain bracelet can also complete and complement any style.

Costume jewelry, which is also called fashion jewelry, is designed to accessorize with current fashions and is typically made with inexpensive materials. In the realm of fine jewelry, chain bracelets typically have connected links of metal, often gold or silver, while fashion chain bracelets are more frequently made with gold-plated links or silvertone. Chain bracelets can be minimally simple or adorned with charms, and they've been around for a long time — examples of chain bracelets date back to Ancient Rome.

Your favorite fashion chain bracelet, like a lot of vintage and antique fashion bracelets, can accent your ensemble and serve as a colorful expression of your personal fashion sense, whether you’re pairing your best beaded bracelet with a stylish Chanel suit or stacking a handful of bangles to wear with your trusty blue jeans.

And styling bracelets is a cinch: Don’t overwhelm a slim wrist with a chunky link chain bracelet, for example. An understated, single-strand leather piece will work better in that instance, while a charm bracelet — one passed down as an heirloom, perhaps — could add a focal point without too much bulkiness.

Antique chain bracelets add a splash of glamour to ensembles and are sure to be cherished keepsakes in any jewelry box. Art Deco chain bracelets, which are frequently embellished with colorful gemstones, are works of art that spark conversations and elicit welcome compliments. The elegance of the 1920s and ’30s is at home with evening wear as well as a classic suit or sheath dress.

Eye-catching fashion bracelets made around the world can adorn wrists and become treasured gifts. Browse vintage fashion chain bracelets on 1stDibs.
