Kooljewelry10k Yellow Gold Rope Chain Barely-There Necklace (0.7 mm, 0.9 mm, 1 mm or 1.3 mm) - Thin And Lightweight

The 16-inch length in yellow gold (clasp is marked 10K F) is very delicate looking. It's hardly noticeable but is exactly what I wanted. It's been on 24/7 since I received it 2 months ago. Through showers/sleep/work, everything it has stayed on. No change in color. If snagged it seems like it will break but for normal wear it's sturdy and perfect. Pretty and delicate and very well made! Note that the clasp is very tiny but not an issue for small adult hands; I needed a jewelers magnifier to read the gold rating 😂

PROS: I was looking for a 10k gold, 16” long and 0.7mm wide chain and selected this one. I ordered a similar necklace from a well-known jewelry store for over $100 that has a triangle pendant attached. I wanted to make a shorter version to layer with a bumblebee pendent I own. This chain was a perfect match to the jewelry store chain. They look so similar that I’m now nervous the jewelry store overcharged me for what might be the same chain I found on Amazon.CONS: When it arrived - it was SO THIN and SO SMALL that I dropped it a few times and couldn’t find it. It looks and feels very fragile and dainty. The jewelry store chain definitely feels stronger, even though it looks nearly identical. I’m nervous that this Amazon chain will get tangled on clothes or hair and break. If that happens, it’s so light that you wouldn’t even know.

Most of the time when I see a negative review, I admit I assume misuse on the part of the owner, but holy cow. This morning I put the chain on with a very small, lightweight pendant I recently purchased. I noticed that the clasp was kind of too strong. After wearing it while I got ready, I decided I didn't like the length or the chain type for this particular pendant, so I went to take it off and prepare it for a return, and it came off surprisingly easily...THE CLASP WAS COMPLETELY BROKEN.This is a poor design. The strength of the clasp mechanism is too much for how dainty it is, so my best guess is that it breaks very easily as a result. I have small, skinny fingers, and it was tough to use even for me. I had been hoping this would work, since I wanted 10k to match the pendant, but I'll be returning this chain, and purchasing another one from Jewlpire. I have a nice box chain from there that I would have used if the loop had fit through the bail. I recommend anyone seeing this does the same.

I am quite pleased with my little gold chain. I wasn't certain when I ordered it if it would be sturdy enough to look right and strong enough either - for my grandmother's pendant that I wear all the time - but it is! It is doing a fine job and has been for a good while now. I don't ever take it off and it has been worry free for me. It doesn't look wrong either - it is fine and looks right with the pendant. Nice chain : )Added 6/2021: still beautiful. I had to take it off for an X-Ray, not the MRI, the tech knew it was gold! I misplaced it and am ordering another as cannot be without this! .7mm 16" is perfect for me and I'm in 6 0s - don't hesitate to try - it's a lovely chain!7/1/21 just received my new chain. I only bought the new one because I misplaced the first one. I love this little chain! Perfect length and though dainty it is very strong and looks right with my pendant.* I have one wish and it is that the clasp were a lobster claw. The tiny clasp is almost a deal breaker for me.

I was tired of my gold plated chains tarnishing after a few weeks, so I figured it was time to invest in a solid gold one. I've been wearing this one every day for about 2 months now and it's still going strong. I've been able to wear it all day — even in the shower — without any sign of wear, which is of course exactly what I hoped and expected from a real gold chain. It is very thin, so I do take care to avoid it being tugged on too hard, but it's been sturdy so far. It's held up through a few accidentally-harder-than-anticipated-yanks without issue.My only gripe about this chain is that the clasp is incredibly teeny tiny. I get that it's a result of how thin the chain itself is, but it's very difficult to open. I've been putting on and taking off necklaces daily for years, and I still struggle for about 5-10 minutes each time I try to put this necklace on. If for any reason you struggle with fine motor control or have trouble holding very tiny things, you may want to look elsewhere.

Realize description states thin but wasn’t expecting “this” thin. Chain is still lovely.

Love it

The size of the links were a good thickness. Marked 10k and had a fish hook clasp. For the price it was a good buy. I’m very happy with the chain.
