Chains are among the oldest ornaments of mankind. They can emphasize beauty and express style. Moreover, they are suitable as women's and men's jewellery. Discover the variety of their designs.
Chains are traditionally divided into 9 types:
Its characteristic feature is the elongated oval-shaped links, which are arranged in a row, each link being rotated 90 degrees to the previous one. The Anchor arrangement gives the chain exceptional strength and an elegant appearance at the same time. They excel in resistance to tangling and breakage.
The Figaro pattern is a fascinating combination of different lengths of links, typically in a 1:2:1 or 1:3:1 ratio, creating a visually appealing rhythm. This style has its roots in the Italian jewellery tradition and bears the name of Mozart's famous opera. It is characterized by alternating one longer link with several shorter ones, giving it a dynamic and sophisticated look.
The Curb type is one of the most versatile and popular chain designs ever. The design is inspired by real armour - the links are flat, round or oval, and connect to each other to form a continuous, flexible line. This pattern excels in both mechanical strength and surprising lightness.
Valis represents a modern innovation in the field of chains. This pattern was created as a variation on classic patterns with an emphasis on lightness and contemporary design. The links of the valis chain are linked in a way that creates a subtle but distinctive shimmer with every movement. These chains are popular with customers looking for luxury jewellery that reflects current trends.
The chain in the Box pattern impresses with its geometric design and architectural precision. As the name suggests, the links are in the shape of cubes or blocks that are connected to each other to form a smooth line. This modern pattern attracts attention with its unique texture and the way it reflects light.
The Foxtail pattern, named for its 'foxy' cleverness and elegance, features intricate interlacing of links that creates a unique texture reminiscent of shiny fur. This pattern stands out for its flexibility and the way it adapts to the contours of the body.
Rolo chain consists of identical circular links that are connected so that each link passes through the previous one. This simple but effective design creates a strong and flexible chain that is easy to adjust and extremely resistant to tangles. The pattern is popular for its versatility - suitable for necklaces and bracelets as well as for hanging pendants.
The snake chain represents the pinnacle of jewellery art. Its structure mimics the movement and texture of snake skin, creating an incredibly fluid and flexible piece of jewellery that perfectly follows the curves of the body. This type of chain is made up of tiny, tightly linked links that create a continuous, shiny surface.
The Gucci type is a nautical-inspired chain that combines ruggedness with elegance. Its characteristic feature is the double or triple links that are connected in a way reminiscent of nautical knots. This design is popular for its distinctive character and unmistakable look.
