Enamels

Enamel chains combine metalwork with colour, offering a hard-wearing finish that’s resistant to tarnish and flaking. These chains are used in both fine and fashion jewellery. Suitable for use with jump rings, bails, clasps, and clips with rings, enamel chains can complement designs featuring gemstones like amethyst, sapphire, or cubic zirconia.

Often incorporated into high end jewellery, enamel chains are compatible with most standard tools and supplies. Best used in settings with silver metal clay, copper and wire, or designs requiring vibrant contrast against stones like topaz, tourmaline, or aquamarine. Trusted across the New Zealand jewellery industry, enamel chains are a reliable choice for projects needing both style and stability.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can enamel chains be soldered?

No, enamel coated chains cannot be soldered directly, as the heat may damage the enamel. Use jump rings or clasps instead.

2. Are enamel chains hypoallergenic?

Most enamel chains are nickel-free, but we recommend confirming individual metal compositions—especially when working with gold chain, silverchain, or plated alloys.

3. Do enamel chains work with gemstone pendants?

Yes, enamel chains pair well with gemstones and precious stones like alexandrite, zircon, and peridot, offering a bold contrast or colour match depending on the design.
