Women's hand chain

The classic materials used to make chains are precious metals. Most often it is gold or silver. Jewelry made of these metals looks elegant and will never go out of style.

Other metals, as well as their alloys: copper, titanium, tin, zinc, occupy a worthy niche here. These budget options will also look great. If you still want to see the shine of precious metals on your hand, you can choose an accessory from an inexpensive metal with a dusting. Gilding, silver plating, platinum coating are in demand.

But modern designers do not know the barriers in choosing the source material, which is why you can meet chains of materials such as, for example, plastic. Thus, they get inexpensive jewelry that is easy to beat in certain styles.

Currently, the market offers customers a huge selection of chains: narrow, wide, thick, thin, classic, extraordinary. This diversity allows each member of the fair sex to choose an ornament that matches her style, age, taste, but one of the main criteria when choosing an ornament is the type of weaving.

The main types of weaving chains are only three: “Anchor”, “Carapace”, “Bismarck”. Possessing its own characteristic features, each of them is constantly being improved and supplemented by small nuances, it is overgrown with new and new variations.

The simplest type of weaving is considered anchor. It got its name for its external resemblance to a real anchor chain. It is characterized by the arrangement of the links perpendicular to each other. The classical form of the links is oval, however, in such varieties of anchor weaving as Garibaldi or Rollo, the links have a round shape. And in the "Double Anchor" weaving, the links are double. Products of this weaving possess high durability and are unpretentious in leaving.

The links in the armored weaving, like the links of the chain mail of a warrior, are mounted on the same plane with each other. Thanks to a single, double or triple number of fastened rings in a link, as well as various shapes and sizes, this technology allows you to create the most unusual and original chains. Very popular types of armor plating, such as "Nonna", "Figaro"

The Bismarck weave is the most complex and massive, so women rarely choose it to decorate their delicate, refined handles.

Weaving masters are constantly looking for ever new original and unusual forms and methods of weaving, using various combinations of weaving to pleasantly surprise lovers to decorate their body.

Often, weaving is called by a special type of links: “Love” - hearts, “Rose” - the flower of the same name, “Snail” - the spiral, “Rhombus” - rhombuses and others. “Snake”, “Serpentine”, “Kolos”, “Venice”, “Byzantine”, one of the most popular “Singapore” and “Korda” today - you can list them for a long time, but one thing can be said about all - they are all elegant and unique in their own way.

It would seem that a simple decoration is a chain. A classic hand jewelry that does not require any decorative elements. You may be surprised to learn that even it can be complemented by a wide variety of elements.

Perhaps the most popular addition to the hand chain are inserts. They can be located on top of the links: as a rule, these are miniature stones. But between the two links of the chain stones, pearls, metal inserts in the form of a word, figures, etc. can be located. Several small additions, identical or alternating, can also be placed in the jewelry. This insertion method implies complete freedom of imagination for designers, because anything can become a small addition to such an accessory.

A chain with a pendant is suitable not only for the neck, as is commonly believed, but also for the hand. You can choose such a kit for yourself, or you can choose a suspension separately. Such an ornament will look very gentle and elegant on the hand.

For lovers of extraordinary models, there is a very original solution - a chain in which two or more types of weaving alternate. Such an adornment will definitely not leave his owner's hand without attention.

If you want decoration “with a twist”, but don’t like to depart from the canon, the best solution for you is a combined chain on your hand. Made of two types of metal, this accessory will look bright, and at the same time elegant.

Oddly enough, the clasp can also become a decorative element in the chain. After all, there are a considerable number of their species, and some of them can be turned into a whole composition, or simply a large ornament on the background of a modest thin chain. But in no case does this affect convenience. Fastening them is as easy as a regular fastener.

1. When choosing a chain on your hand, you first need to determine the size. To do this, it is enough to measure the girth of the wrist with a centimeter and add 1-2 cm to this length. So the jewelry will not hug the hand much and, if necessary, will not slip off it.
2. The next thing you should pay attention to when choosing is how harmoniously this or that chain looks on your hand. For a fragile young girl, a large chain can be bulky, and for a respectable woman, it can become an elegant decoration.At the same time, a thin graceful chain can look frivolous on a large hand, but for a gentle girl’s wrist it fits perfectly.
3. Harmony should be maintained in style. To do this, your accessory must match the image, and also successfully combine with other details.
4. If you definitely want to complement your jewelry collection with a new jewelry, pay attention to the sample. On a chain made of several precious metals, a sample should be on each of them.

Women's hand chain is a rather universal jewelry. And there, however, there are several tips on how to wear it properly.

The main question is which hand should you wear the chain on. As a rule, it is worn on the right hand, since it is more often in sight, which will advantageously make the jewelry more noticeable. But if the chain is massive, it can be inconvenient, for example, when writing. In this case, it should be put on the left hand, and lefties, respectively, on the right.

• Do not wear a chain on one hand with a watch if they are made in different styles. The classic chain will not look advantageous against the background of a sports watch.
• Also, the jewelry should be combined with the rings on the same hand. They should be in harmony in style, as well as be made of one metal.
• As you know, fastening the chain itself is extremely inconvenient. To facilitate the task, there is a trick. It is only necessary to take a paper clip, bend it in the shape of the letter S, thread one end into the last link of the chain, and take the other end with the same hand. Thus, to fasten the decoration is not difficult.

Following these tips, you can make the chain on your hand a spectacular addition to your image.
