Box Chain Collection
A box chain, also called a Venetian chain, is made up of square links that sit behind one another like small boxes. Sleek, smooth and without any frills.
The best choice for a pendant
This is the link you want when the pendant should set the tone. It is narrow, does not draw attention and does not twist, so a cross or pendant hangs straight instead of turning sideways. Our guide gives five reasons for a silver box chain and what else this link is good at.
Length
Our box chain runs from 45 to 55 cm (18 to 22in), stopping earlier than most links because it is built as a base under a pendant. Which of the three is yours is worked out in which box chain length suits you best.
Wearing it minimally
On its own, a box chain also works well if you want something that is there without standing out. Where a Cuban link or king's link makes a statement, this is the chain you simply leave on.
Material
On a narrow link the finish counts for more, because there is little mass to hide behind. Our box chains are stainless steel. The silver-colored one is bare, polished steel with no coating: it does not change color and can stay on in the shower. The gold-colored one carries a five-layer PVD finish. It is harder than ordinary plating, but still a coating, so take that one off before the shower and the gym. Take both off before swimming. If you want this link in a real precious metal, have a look at 925 sterling silver.
