{"product_id":"9ct-yellow-gold-cable-chain-2-29mm-40cm","title":"9ct Yellow Gold Cable Chain 2.29mm 40cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eA cable chain is built from identical links, each set at ninety degrees to the one before it. It is the most structurally predictable chain there is: every link is the same closed ring, so a jeweller can shorten it, lengthen it or replace a damaged link anywhere along its run without interrupting the pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece is 9ct yellow gold, 2.29 mm across the nominal width and 40 cm long, weighing approximately 6 g — solid throughout, not hollow-filled. Because the links alternate in plane, a cable chain lies flat, resists kinking and carries a pendant bail squarely rather than letting it roll to one side.\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 2.29 mm it has real presence: enough to be worn on its own without looking heavy.
