Belcher
Belcher chains are a strong, round-link style ideal for holding pendants, charms, or worn on their own. They're commonly used in both men’s and women’s designs, with options in sterling silver, gold filled metal, and 925 silver. Belcher chains are a practical choice for both lightweight and heavier pieces. They're suitable for pairing with gemstones and integrate easily into a range of projects, they’re suitable for repair, custom builds, or stock jewellery designs in both retail and workshop settings.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can Belcher chains be soldered?
Yes, most sterling silver and gold filled Belcher chains can be soldered using solder paste or solder wire, with a soldering kit or blow torch, as long as correct technique and temperature control are applied.
2. What is the best clasp for a Belcher chain?
A standard parrot clasp or lobster clasp is typically used. The round link design allows for easy attachment using jump rings or clips with rings.
3. Are Belcher chains suitable for gemstone pendants?
Yes, Belcher chains are sturdy enough to hold gemstone gems like cubic zirconia, zircon, spinel, or aquamarine, especially when sized appropriately to match the weight of the pendant.
