Which Chain Is More Durable?

A Reader Writes in and Asks Me a

QUESTION:

LINDA IN PORTLAND, OR, WRITES:

I have a Small Turquoise Pendant I Wear 24/7.

Which would be More Durable a 14K .7 mm Box Link or a 10K .9mm Snake Chain?

ANSWER FOR LINDA:

Hi Linda.

I would Advise going with the .7mm 14kt Box Chain.

Even though the 10kt Chain is More Durable and Thicker than the 14kt Chain, Snake Chains tend to Kink up and Bend, especially when hanging a Pendant from it.

Box Chains are Much Better when it comes to Charms and Pendants because the Chain comes to a Nice V on the Neck and doesn’t have a Bending Point.

But I will say…

My Favorite Chain for Pendants is the Wheat Chain! Those are Beautiful, Durable, and won’t Kink! :)

Hope this Helps with your Decision!
