If you've had a chain go dull or snap within a month, start here. This Cuban chain is 5mm wide. Cuban links interlock and are pressed flat, so the chain lies close against the skin. It's made from 316L stainless steel. We cut it to the length you order in our UK workshop and finish it by hand.

It's non tarnish and water resistant, and 316L stainless steel is hypoallergenic for most users. It fastens with a lobster clasp, which we fit ourselves.

It comes in lengths from 16" (41cm) to 26" (66cm) in 2" steps, with an optional 4" (10cm) extender chain. Before you choose, wrap a piece of string round your neck where you'd like the chain to sit, then measure the string. Once it's on, the only reason to take it off is because you want to.
