How To Use A Safety Chain
Safety chains are used to keep your favourite jewellery safe while wearing it.
They are great if you have an expensive piece of jewellery, a piece that's sentimental or handed down to you. You could be worried about wearing it in case you lose it but with a safety chain, you won't need to worry and can wear it with confidence because if the clasp breaks, your necklace or bracelet will be saved by the extra chain.
At Kernowcraft, we have high-quality sterling silver safety chain and 9ct gold safety chain for both bracelets and necklaces - it couldn't be easier to add the safety chain yourself.
What's the difference between a bracelet and necklace safety chain?
A necklace safety chain has a clasp whereas a bracelet safety chain has no clasp, as it will easily slip over your wrist.
