{"product_id":"9ct-white-gold-box-chain-0-80mm-40cm","title":"9ct White Gold Box Chain 0.8mm 40cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eA box chain is formed from square-section links that close into a continuous row of cubes. The squared profile gives four flat faces along the chain, so light is returned in clean lines rather than scattered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece is 9ct white gold, 0.8 mm across the nominal width and 40 cm long, weighing approximately 1.975 g — solid throughout, not hollow-filled, rhodium plated. The articulation is tight and the drape is deliberately low, which keeps a pendant hanging dead centre instead of drifting. It is the usual choice where a pendant needs to sit still.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this suit me?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it sits:\u003c\/strong\u003e At 40 cm it sits high, at the base of the throat, just above the collarbone. It is the shortest standard length and works best alone or as the top layer. On a larger neck it fits closely, so if it's for a man, 50 cm is the usual starting point.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow it looks:\u003c\/strong\u003e At 0.8 mm this is a fine chain: a thin, bright line that reads as delicate on its own and lets a small pendant take the attention. It weighs about 2 g. The square links give a sleek, smooth line that catches the light evenly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWith a pendant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suits a light pendant or charm, such as a small solitaire. For anything heavier, a chain of 1.3 mm or more is the safer match. A pendant slides freely along the smooth, square links.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEveryday wear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9ct is the harder alloy and stands up well to daily wear. The bright white finish is rhodium plating, which wears with daily contact and can be renewed by a jeweller. It is solid throughout, so a jeweller can repair or shorten it. Fine chains are the most delicate kind: take it off to sleep, swim and train, and store it hanging or laid flat to avoid knots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinding your length:\u003c\/strong\u003e Measure a chain you already own from end to end, clasp included, or run a piece of string around your neck to where you'd like it to sit.
