Delicate and very beautiful chain
Date:March 12, 2012
"I bought these to use in a necklace but the links are extremely small and difficult to use. The chain is too cute and I hope to be able to use it somewhere."

"Well, this is the first time I purchased this chain. I've been looking for chains that are affordable and still look rich and interesting. I thought this would be a little more substantial, although still delicate. I probably won't purchase this one again and will stick with the small rolo! Not that it's a bad chain...it just doesn't work with my personal designs very well."

"very nice chain but don't use the .5mm jump rings if you're making customer necklaces because the chain slips out of the ring with any pulling whatsoever.
Use the 1.2mm Sterling Silver Crimp End Cap instead.

"->Its very small delicate chain, it works well for any swarovski pendent, it makes $20 turn into the same necklace you get at the swarovski store for $80+.
->Its very lustrous, and shines like mid morning sun in your bedroom window.
->its the best value if you want style and practicality.
The only difficult part is fitting the tiny jump rings through the links in the chain to attach your Italian chain tags and 5mm spring ring clasp.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
the necklace:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
jump ring size: Sterling Silver Open Jump Ring - 0.020 x .090 inches (0.5 x 2.3mm) (x2)
Chain tag: Sterling Silver 925 Quality Chain Tag (x1)
spring clasp: 5mm Sterling Spring Ring (Closed Loop) (x1)
assemble the findings on the desired length of chain (14" 18" ect..) 18" is the most common.
attach a swarovski pendant with bail of your choice. or any other pendant that you find amazing.

too small!
Date:December 10, 2010
Pros: Quality, Color
Cons: Size, Ease of Use
"This chain is ok- the only reason I'm disappointed is that the links are SO tiny! otherwise, it's a great chain, but it will be impossible to make anything besides earrings with it. Except for its size though, the chain is very strong and high quality."

Perfect for small charms
Date:October 9, 2010
"I've been looking for a chain that won't overwhelm my smaller charms ('wish necklace' size). This is absolutely perfect.
Dainty and subtle, but can be easily incorporated into a casual look. Strong, too. I couldn't be happier."

"Found this to be the perfect chain for a tin can freshwater pearl necklace and earring set. It's simply beautiful. The links are very small, and I am new to jewelry making, but the effort was well worth it."

delicate but sturdy
Date:October 1, 2008
"Nice delicate chain, 24 gauge wire can just pass it. I made earrings with it and thinking of make a necklace. It seems to be delicate but strong enough for a necklace."
