The Franco's V-shaped links lock together into a tight square section with no gaps, which makes it the most durable chain shape in gold and the best one to hang a pendant from — it doesn't roll, so a heavy piece stays centred instead of spinning the clasp round to the front. Hollow construction keeps the weight and the price down, so you can wear a real 14K white gold Franco for a fraction of what the solid version costs.

14K white gold is 58.5% pure, alloyed with white metals and rhodium-plated for the bright silver finish.

Choosing your chain

Every width and length combination is its own piece with its own gram weight. Select both above and the page shows the exact weight and the price for that combination — price is derived from the gold weight.

  • Widths: 1.5, 1.9, 2.2, 3.2, 4.4, 5.3 and 6.4 MM. Franco reads heavier than it measures because of how tightly the links pack — 2.2 MM is already a proper men's chain.
  • Lengths: 16 to 30 inches. 22″–24″ is the usual choice for a pendant chain.
  • Metal: 14K white gold, stamped 14K
  • 100% real gold — stamped and hallmarked, never plated base metal
  • Free shipping
  • Financing available at checkout

Care

White gold is rhodium-plated over a yellowish alloy, and that plating slowly wears — every few years a jeweller can re-plate it and the chain looks new again. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush; the tight Franco weave holds oil, so do it properly rather than often. No chlorine. Hollow links don't tolerate crushing, so don't sleep in it or wear it under weights.

Also available in yellow and rose gold, in 10K and 18K, and in solid.
