Chain Link Styles Explained
Cuban Link Chains
Bold, interlocking oval links that lie flat against the skin. Originating from hip-hop culture, Cuban links make a strong statement. Available in various widths from subtle 6mm to chunky 12mm. Perfect for those who want their chain to be noticed.
Rope Chain Pattern
Classic twisted design where links spiral together like a rope. This timeless pattern catches light beautifully from every angle. Rope chains offer elegant movement and work well both alone and with pendants. A true jewelry staple.
Figaro Chain Design
Italian-origin pattern alternating between small circular links and elongated oval links (typically 3:1 ratio). This distinctive rhythm creates visual interest while maintaining elegance. Popular for both casual and dressy occasions.
Box & Curb Patterns
Box chains feature square links creating clean geometric lines - ideal for pendants. Curb chains have twisted flat links that lie flat, offering everyday versatility. Both styles are durable workhorses perfect for daily wear.

Chain Link Style FAQs
What are the most popular chain link styles?
Popular styles include Cuban links for bold statements, rope chains for classic elegance, figaro for Italian styling, box chains for pendants, and curb chains for everyday versatility. Each has a distinct visual character.
Cuban vs curb links - what's the difference?
Cuban links are thick, interlocking ovals creating a bold look. Curb chains have similar twisted flat links but are thinner and more understated. Cuban is statement; curb is everyday classic.
Which link style works best for pendants?
Box chains and cable chains work best - their sturdy construction supports pendant weight with clean lines. Snake chains suit lighter pendants. Avoid rope or figaro for heavy pendants as they can twist.
Which link pattern is most durable?
Curb and box chains are most durable for daily wear due to interlocking construction. Rope chains are also strong. Avoid delicate snake chains for rough use. Heavier links provide more durability.
