Tips To Keep In Mind When Buying A Gold Chain



Gold never goes out of trend. It remains one of the most precious and beloved metals. In fact, it is among the top metals people buy when they wish to invest in jewellery. The market is always brimming with buyers and the latest designs of gold jewellery. Even the simplest of gold chains come in so many varieties that you will be left wondering what to pick.

And why should you not be? Investing in gold is a big decision. You will have to spend huge amount on pure gold chains. This is why, it is important to keep a few tips in mind before buying one.

Below, we have jotted 5 tips that can help in buying the perfect gold chain. Take a look!

1. Know The Type
Typically, gold chains come in three types – solid gold, hollow, or gold plated. If you want to adorn a gold chain that’s stronger and stays the same for a longer time, go for solid chains. They are made of solid gold and feel heavy. Such chains also do not cause any skin issues even if you wear them on a daily basis. However, there is one catch. Solid gold chains are quite expensive.

The gold-plated ones are comparatively cheap and they can cause skin allergies to some people. The plating also wears off after a while, making the chain dull. This is why it is not suitable for daily use.

Now moving to the hollow chains, these are much lighter and are less expensive than the sold ones. But they are prone to breaking and denting. So, you have to be extra careful with such chains.

2. The Link
Just knowing the type is important, you should also think about the gold chain’s link. For instance, if you go for flat chains like omega or herringbone, they are vulnerable to twisting. Similarly, a round snake chain is quite troublesome as it can twist on the fabric.

The best chain link types, as per jewellers, is the box chain and the wheat chain. They are both strong and relatively flexible for regular use. Other than these, you can also opt for link choices like the Figaro, the mariner, the anchor, the curb, and the rope link chain.

3. The Quality
This is one of the most important things to keep in mind when buying gold chains. After all, buying gold means large money investment. You need to ensure that the gold chain you are purchasing is of high quality and authenticity.

One way to do that is to look for hallmarked chains only. This indicates the purity of gold. Other than this, you should always opt for 24kt gold piece as it is considered 99.9% pure. The purity descends with 22kt, 18kt, 14kt etc.

4. The Length
Length may not be a big factor but it should be if you know how to style your gold chain. For instance, if you want a chain that’s closer to your neckline, opt for 16-inch gold chain. But if you want the chain to fall on your clothing as well, try 20-inch long gold chain designs in 20 grams. This can create a dramatic effect and make your look more stylish.

If you something more common, try an 18-inch long gold chain. They are good for regular wear too.

5. The Price
Price plays a vital role in deciding which gold chain is good for you. Thus, always keep a budget in mind. The price also indicates the purity and authenticity of a gold chain. You should always compare prices before investing in it.

That being said, do not buy gold chains from any unknown brand. Rather purchase from a trusted and authorised jeweller to get not just the right price but also the right product.

Investing in gold is a big decision for all of us. Thus, always take your time in researching before buying a gold chain. Follow these tips too and get home a dazzling gold chain soon!
