Gold chain with weaving in the form of a lace
All chains are divided into three main types of weaving: "anchor", "shell" and weaving "Pearl". In addition, there is a mixed style.
Anchor weaving is the links threaded into each other, which are perpendicular to each other.
Shell - these are tightly connected links lying in the same plane.
Weaving "Perlin" differs from others in that balls and similar shapes are used instead of links.
Weaving "lace" and its varieties "snack" and "flagellum" refers to armored weaving.
It is particularly durable, in large products such weaving can look quite massive, and very thin chains can give the impression of a solid gold thread.
As its name implies, such a product is created by the type of twisted thread, or cord. Double and triple "lace", respectively, represents two or three golden threads twisted together.
Simple, democratic and at the same time unusual because of the very idea of a golden thread, a golden flagellum.
Such jewelry is suitable not only for connoisseurs of gold and other precious metals, but also for lovers of jewelry, various kinds of bracelets, ethnic ropes, who can discover a new interesting version of jewelry. The chain can be an independent decoration and be combined with pendants, pendants, crosses, etc.
The chain is very popular along with other jewelry. The reason for this is simple. There are many ways to use the product: it is worn around the neck, waist, arms, ankles and hair. This jewelry is much easier to choose as a gift, in comparison, for example, with a ring or earrings.
HOW TO CHOOSE
There are many options for the appearance of the "lace" chain. The choice of one of them depends on the following points:
Body type
Of course, there are no specific rules by which it would be possible to call an ornament female or male. This is a subjective choice of each person. But there are certain characteristics by which jewelry emphasizes certain details in appearance. So, for example, for men, wide, strict chains are more suitable. And women look lighter and more elegant.
Style
Jewelry is selected to complement the image. You can choose a universal decoration or different for each style. There are a lot of options for such chains, from small to large, in different colors, with or without additional decorations.
"Lace" is considered a universal decoration and is suitable for any clothing. It can be an evening dress - a red gold chain will be in harmony with it. Or a summer everyday option with light lemon gold embellishment. Warm knitted sweater with a wide "lace" made of white gold. Thin chains for crosses and pendants are suitable for light clothing.
You can create combined options from several decorations. For example, according to the type of bracelets, you can put several chains of different widths on your hand. In this case, it is best to choose jewelry of the same color, as together they can look like costume jewelry and lose their visible value.
Age
Small children, as a rule, do not wear gold and silver chains. And for an adult, the “lace” chain is a wonderful choice. For young people, depending on taste and style, decorative options are suitable. For people of a more mature age - classic.
Additional decorations
Weaving "lace" is very smooth and pleasant to the touch. Such a chain does not cling to clothes and hair, therefore it is very often used as a chain for pendants, hair ornaments, accessories for various things.
A round "lace" is well suited for pendants, crosses and other pendants, because its edges will not be erased by the darling. And as an independent decoration, you can choose any other: oval, flattened and square.
Quality
To buy a quality chain, you need to know what it consists of. As part of gold jewelry, an admixture of other metals is used.
Thanks to impurities, the finished product acquires different shades of gold: white, yellow, pink, purple and even black.
- The highest standard "999" means that in 1 kilogram of the alloy there are 999 grams of gold and 1 gram of another metal. Finished jewelry with a high amount of gold is fragile, quickly torn and erased, so they are rarely found on the market.
- The most common sample in Russia is "585". If silver and copper are in approximately the same amount in the mixture, then the finished metal will acquire a light, greenish tint. This metal is called "Lemon Gold" and costs about the same as yellow, white and red.
When choosing a chain, you need to pay attention to the sample and compare it with the external characteristics of the product: softness and color. If they match, then the decoration is of high quality.
CARE
Gold is one of the most noble metals. It has long been known for its unique properties - non-corrosion, plasticity, luxurious shine. The owners of jewelry made of this metal at all times were considered wealthy and successful people. Therefore, after buying a product, you want it to retain its original appearance as long as possible.
To maintain the original appearance and durability of the chain, you need to properly care for it.
During operation, the chain fades - this is due to the interaction of gold with air and skin. Unforeseen troubles can also occur - you can tear, burn or deform the decoration. Before using certain cleaning chemicals, it is necessary to check their interaction with the metals that make up gold.
- For care, you can wipe the product with onion juice, mustard, beer with egg yolk, toothpaste and washing powders, or soak in a chalk solution and ammonia.
- You can care for more complex, specially designed chemical compounds. All the subtleties of care and characteristics in this case are indicated by the manufacturers of the products. As a rule, reviews about them are quite positive.
The lace chain is strong, but, like a snake, it cannot be folded or bent.
In order for the chain not to deform, it is better to store it in a straightened state. It is desirable that for each product there is a separate box or box.
