{"product_id":"sterling-silver-cable-chain","title":"Sterling Silver Cable Chain","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\u003eBecause 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\u003cp\u003eThis is the only gauge we carry in this style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLengths run from 40 to 55 cm. 40 cm sits at the base of the throat; 45 cm sits on the collarbone and is the most common pendant length; 50 cm sits just below the collarbone and clears a crew neckline; 55 cm sits at the top of the sternum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e sterling silver (925)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cable chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLengths available:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40cm, 45cm, 50cm, 55cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupplier reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e CA30\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold as:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSterling silver is 925 parts per thousand fine silver, the balance copper. The copper is what makes it workable — fine silver on its own is too soft to hold a form — and it is also why sterling tarnishes: the copper reacts with sulphur in the air. Tarnish is a surface film, not corrosion. It polishes off with a silver cloth and the metal beneath is unchanged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServicing.\u003c\/strong\u003e Uniform links make this one of the simplest chains to alter or repair. Store silver closed — a box or a zip bag — when it is not being worn. Tarnish is driven by air rather than by wear, so the pieces that sit in the open are the ones that darken first.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jewellery Centre","offers":[{"title":"40cm","offer_id":67736259985513,"sku":"CA30 S-01","price":18.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"45cm","offer_id":67736260018281,"sku":"CA30 S-02","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50cm","offer_id":67736260051049,"sku":"CA30 S-03","price":21.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"55cm","offer_id":67736260083817,"sku":"CA30 S-04","price":29.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/2406\/4361\/files\/CA30_sterling-silver-cable-chain_061519e9-7240-415a-8187-35aea650690c.jpg?v=1793709674","url":"https:\/\/www.caratdirect.com.au\/products\/sterling-silver-cable-chain","provider":"CaratDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
