Are gold chains worth the money?

1 Answer
Are gold chains worth the money?
Many jewelry lovers believe that gold chains are worth the money. Whether it's white, yellow or rose in hue, gold has a visually appealing color that resists tarnishing when cared for and stored properly. Gold alloys, such as 14-karat and 18-karat gold, are also resistant to scratching, making these materials a good choice for chains you intend to wear frequently. Plus, the popularity of gold means you can find a wealth of styles and lengths to suit your preferences and coordinate with pendants in your collection. However, whether or not it’s worth investing in gold chains is totally subjective! At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Find gold chains and other jewelry on 1stDibs.
