Chains with a rhombus at the base of weaving are very popular and in demand. In this case, each of the links is a geometric figure of the same name. Equal opposite corners or squares of an elongated shape make up a solid structure and a beautiful decoration. This is one of the classic forms of weaving, but it has several varieties.

Weaving technology

There is nothing complicated in such technology. It consists in creating medium-sized links that need to be connected and then soldered. It turns out a masterpiece in the form of a design that can be called simple, beautiful, elegant and completely uncomplicated. Women often opt for a flat chain shape, while men prefer double and even triple weaves, when a chain with several rings across the width makes the product more massive.

Double rhombus can be of different shapes:

  • with rounded double rings improvising a flower arrangement;
  • with an inverted square, embodying a three-dimensional decoration;
  • with elongated diamond-shaped rings, characteristic of the traditional representation.

Difference from others

A chain with a simple weaving of a rhombus can be made using a machine, and with a double weave - only with a machine.The main weave is modified in such a way that one more, third, is added to each pair of rings, and as a result a beautiful three-dimensional picture is obtained. After the chain is fully assembled, it is sent under a press, where the product becomes flat and uniform.

In addition, the flattened edges of the rings located at the edges are complemented by special cuts, and in order to complete the form, jewelers still have to manually grind the metal and cover it with a galvanic composition (an alloy of gold with other additives).

If notches are made on gold using diamond cutters, then wedge-shaped grooves can be obtained, different in depth and in the angle of the notch - thus, the master can get the finest pattern on the metal. And the reflections of light playing in such a pattern will create the complete impression that these are not grooves, but inserts of real diamonds.

Processing the gold links of the chain with a diamond facet always attracts the eye, especially if direct sunlight falls on the jewelry and is dazzlingly reflected in these facets. Then it seems that the product is not made of gold, but of precious stones.

The most suitable for weaving a double rhombus is 585 gold, gilded silver or 925 silver. Moreover, in order for the electroplating not to be erased so quickly from the edge of the chain, the silver coating should be a gold alloy.

Weaving features

Depending on how densely the rings are arranged, the angular inclination of the rings in a double winding can be different. The greater the slope of each of the links, the narrower the gap will be in order to connect the rings:

  • if the angle is from 90 to 120 degrees, you will get a straight type twist, and the links will be located far from one another;
  • if the angle is from 90 to 75 degrees, then the openwork will become compressed and the distance between the links will be small;
  • if the angle is even smaller and amounts to 70-65 degrees, then it turns out, as it were, adjacent rings, closely soldered to one another.

Such weaving will be very durable and will last quite a long time. This jewelry can be presented in such a variety that you can choose it for almost any outfit - even for men, even for women. It can be classic clothes and any free style.

Additional accessories

On the jewelry counter, you can also find a small composition such as a brooch with a woven ornament or some kind of finishing decoration from the technique of creating products for a dress or evening dress. One of the following accessories can complement the image:

  • small pendant;
  • large stone pendant
  • pendants with small name inscriptions;
  • ornaments and patterns in the form of long pendants.

Both the bracelet and the chain can be made of any metal, but mostly it is still gold jewelry. A gold chain with a “double diamond” weave will turn out to be quite strong, and a single version is usually made of silver.

triple diamond

Weaving with a triple rhombus is a combination of three links into one, followed by their arrangement, as in double weaving. There is also a dependence on the angle at which the chain links are located. In a triple rhombus, three identical rings are connected with a cruciform clutch in the center. To make the product even stronger, the place of combination is connected by a heating apparatus. Thus, a region of parts with high strength is obtained.

The edge of each of the links is polished, after which the product looks like a flat one.In the case of making such an ornament from hollow metal, the bending angle is supplemented with a material made of a durable malleable alloy. The product will not be afraid of mechanical damage, and visually it will look the same.

If the metal is thin and dense, and it will most likely be gold, a double-type weave is selected. In the vast majority of cases, for a diamond-shaped pattern with a triple technique in weaving, 585 gold is used.

Abroad, the diamond-shaped weaving method is considered a very complex type, and therefore such jewelry is very expensive there and exclusively expensive types of precious metals are used for their manufacture:

Iridium

Such weaves are of indescribable beauty and have an armored direction, reminiscent of the technique of anchor and diamond-shaped weaving. One gram of iridium costs $18, and it is mined mainly by Arab countries.

Californium

The most expensive metals that exist on our planet include solid California. It is used only as a solution for an alloy, and there are only 8 grams of this substance in the world. One gram of California costs $10,000,000, and the rate of use in work is no more than 10 micrograms. It is clear that if such jewelry is found on women, it is very, very rare.

Reviews

There are very good reviews about double diamond gold chains. Customers like such a beautiful weaving with the location of one rhombus inside another, or rather, what a beautiful three-dimensional pattern the result is.

About chains and bracelets made using this technique, they say that they are simply irresistible, and look equally good on both men and women, and of any age. Such weaving is referred to as a classic that will never go out of fashion.

Also in the reviews, a lot of good words are devoted to the reliability of products and their convenience when worn, and also to the fact that the “double rhombus” chain can be worn both for an evening dress and for a business suit.
