Our Long and Short Chain Necklace is a stunning antique-style chain available in gold-filled or sterling silver. Its distinctive design, with alternating long and short links, exudes timeless elegance. All our chains are made in the USA. Gold filled chain is a budget friendly alternative to solid gold chain, has the same appearance as solid gold chain and will last for decades, unlike gold plated chains. Gold filled contains at least 5% solid gold, while gold plated chains has .05% - that's 100 times more gold on gold filled chains. Gold filled was invented in early 19th century England, where the technique was used to create semi-precious and better quality custom jewelry during the Victorian Era. You can still find antique gold filled jewelry from the Victorian era, that still looks great. Choose from a range of lengths that are all adjustable up to 2 inches; including Princess length (16"-18"), Matinee length (18"-20"), and Opera length (26"-28"), to suit your unique style and create a statement wherever you go.
