Unlike industrial or chain s for other purposes, jewellery chain s are designed for aesthetic purposes. Material Jewellery chains are typically made from precious metals, mainly gold and silver . Platinum , palladium and stainless steel steel may also be used. These metals are used because they are not very reactive, keep both their intricate shape and their strength, and require only minimal maintenance to keep their shine. Small lever mechanisms called findings serve as fastenings to enable the chain to be undone and redone. Styles Trace often the simplest style of chain. The links in a trace chain are typically uniform in breadth and thickness, and can be very delicate, especially in finer widths. Belcher similar to the trace, a belcher chain link is wider than its thickness. Generally the links are round, but the shape of the link can vary. Curb a curb chain is when the links interlock with each other when laid flat. Some more open link curb chains can only be distinguished from a trace by this method.
