Queen Chains

The King's Chain owes its name to its elaborate, dignified design. Unlike a flat box chain or a simple anchor chain, it consists of individual links that are artfully intertwined and woven together multiple times. The result is a completely closed, dense weave that looks the same from every angle—with no visible front or back.

It is precisely this construction that gives the chain its characteristic drape and comfortable weight. A king chain lies smoothly against the neck, doesn’t kink, and retains its shape for years. Because the weave is so compact, even a thin king chain looks high-quality, while a chunky version becomes a real eye-catcher. If you’d like to understand the difference between the various types of chains, you’ll find all the details on craftsmanship and alloys in our material guide.

The right material determines the look, care requirements, and price of your necklace. At IDENTIM, you can count on genuine, jeweler-quality precious metals—every piece comes with a certificate of authenticity that specifies the exact gold or silver content. That way, you always know exactly what you’re wearing.

Silver King's Chain (925)

A silver king chain is a timeless classic: cool and elegant, sturdy, and versatile. We use genuine 925 sterling silver, which consists of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other precious metals. This alloy makes the chain durable enough for everyday wear. Our silver is also nickel-free—which means no allergic reactions and no skin rashes. A 925 silver king chain is available with a rhodium plating, which helps it stay bright for a long time and prevents it from tarnishing as quickly.

Gold King's Chain (585, 750, and higher)

Those who prefer something warmer and more luxurious should choose a gold king’s chain. The number on the certificate indicates the fineness: A 585 gold king’s chain contains 58.5% pure gold (14 karats), while a 750 gold king’s chain contains 75% gold, which corresponds to 18 karats. The higher the gold content, the richer the gold tone and the greater the material value. For men seeking lasting color and luster, a solid king’s chain made of genuine gold is a purchase for life. As a more affordable yet equally high-quality alternative, we offer silver with an 18-karat hard gold plating.

White Gold, Platinum, and Stainless Steel

In addition to yellow gold, more subtle tones are also in demand. A white gold king’s chain combines the value of real gold with a cool, silvery look and pairs perfectly with a modern, minimalist style. Even more exclusive is platinum—one of the world’s most expensive precious metals, more expensive than gold, with high density and a lasting luster. For rugged everyday wear on a budget, a stainless steel king’s chain is ideal, as it is scratch-resistant and completely tarnish-free.
