Slide the last link of your chain onto the jump ring, then close the ring. For complete security (especially for heavy pendants), we recommend having this ring soldered by a professional.

Why choose a carabiner rather than a spring ring?

What is 18-carat rhodium-plated white gold?

18k white gold is composed of 75% pure yellow gold, mixed with other white metals (such as silver or palladium). Naturally, this alloy has a very slightly grayish/champagne-like sheen. Rhodium plating involves depositing a thin layer of rhodium (a rare and precious metal) through electrolysis to give it that perfect, bright white color.
