Rolo Chains

7 pieces

“With gold, you're always dealing with money. So first decide how much of it you want to put into the gold.” Trax, at the jewelry store on 47th Street

Seven rolo chains of round, even links: 1 mm in 14K gold, 2.3 mm in 18K, and silver up to 4.5 mm.

The 1 mm rose gold rolo at 22 inches and the 3.6 mm silver rolo sold most in the year, two of each.

A rolo chain is a line of round links of one size, like a cable chain with rounder, fuller rings. It is simple, strong for its weight and easy to wear every day. Here they run from fine 1 mm mirror rolos in 14K white and rose gold to 2.3 mm in 18K white gold and 3 to 4.5 mm in .925 silver.

Buyer's guide

How to choose a rolo chain

Which rolo carries your pendant, and the metal and length to wear it in

Choose a rolo by what it has to carry. A 1 mm gold rolo holds a small charm or wears alone as a fine line, while the wider silver rolos take a real pendant. Settle the width before the metal, and read the grams printed on each listing before you buy.

Rolo or cable: what a rolo chain is, beside a cable chain

A rolo chain is a row of round links, every one the same size, each passing through the next. A cable chain is built the same way from oval links, so a rolo reads rounder and fuller at the same width. Each link turns freely, which lets a rolo drape evenly and shrug off most kinks. The finest gold rolos here are mirror rolos, polished smooth so the round links throw back light. For the oval link, see the anchor and cable chains.

Width: a thin 1 mm rolo chain or a wide 4.5 mm rolo

Go thin for a quiet line at the neck, and wide for a chain that shows. The gold rolos start at 1 mm, a fine line of 14K that wears as jewelry on its own. The 18K white rolo steps up to 2.3 mm. The silver rolos begin at 3 mm. The widest is 4.5 mm, where the round links show from across a room. Silver is lighter than gold, so a wide silver rolo sits easier on the neck. For anything wider, ask the live chat what can be made.

Pendant: which rolo chain holds a pendant

Match the chain to the pendant, and keep the pendant lighter than the chain. A 1 mm rolo carries a small charm or an initial and little more. Round links let a bail slide and settle at the center. For a medium pendant, take the 3.6 mm silver rolo. A heavy pendant wants the widest rolo. Check that the bail opening clears the clasp before you pay. Which chain for a pendant has the longer answer, and men's pendants holds the pieces to hang.

Metal: white gold, rose gold, 18K or palladium silver rolo chains

Take 14K for a fine rolo worn every day, since it is harder than 18K. The 14K rolos come in white gold and rose gold. 18K is 75 percent gold, a touch softer and richer in color. The silver rolos are .925 palladium silver, with palladium in the alloy to help them resist tarnish. No rolo here comes in yellow gold today, so ask the live chat for one. More in each metal: white gold chains, rose gold chains and silver chains.

Length and care: an 18, 20, 22 or 24 inch rolo chain

Every rolo here is sold in one length, so choose the listing at yours. Eighteen inches sits at the collarbone on most necks. Twenty falls just below it. At 22 the chain reaches the upper chest. The silver rolos all run 24 inches, long enough to show over a crew neck. The desk can shorten or lengthen a chain, and a chain changed to your length is final sale. To clean one, soak it in warm soapy water, brush the links softly and dry it well. Store a fine rolo flat with the clasp closed, and if it tangles, how to untangle a necklace shows the way.

Questions we get in the store

Will a 1 mm rolo chain hold a pendant?

Only a small one, such as a charm or an initial. A 1 mm rolo is a fine line of gold, and a heavy pendant strains it. For a bigger piece, take a wider silver rolo or ask the live chat which chain suits it.

Do you have a thicker rolo chain?

The widest rolo listed today is the 4.5 mm in palladium silver. For a wider or heavier rolo in gold, open the live chat or call or text 212-872-9692 from 10 AM ET, and the desk says what it can make for you.

Can I get a rolo chain in yellow gold or another length?

Ask us, because the rolos here come in white gold, rose gold and silver, each in a single length. We can make one shorter or longer, and once it is changed for you it cannot be returned. Start in the live chat.

More questions we get

What is the difference between a rolo chain and a cable chain?

The shape of the link. A rolo's links are round and full, while a cable chain's links are oval and flatter. Both are rows of same-size links that move freely, so both drape well and carry a pendant.

What length rolo chain should I get?

For most men, take 22 inches, which lands on the upper chest. On most women, 18 sits at the collarbone. Go longer to give a pendant room, and remember that each rolo here is sold in one length.

Does a palladium silver rolo chain tarnish?

It resists tarnish better than plain silver, because the alloy carries palladium, as its listings explain. Silver can still dull with sweat and pool water, so wipe it with a soft cloth after wearing and keep it in a closed pouch.

Is a rolo chain strong enough to wear every day?

Yes, for its width. Round links share the pull evenly and turn instead of kinking. A fine 1 mm rolo can still snap if it catches, so take it off to sleep and train, and choose a wider rolo for a daily pendant.

Can I return a rolo chain?

Yes, unworn and unaltered in its box, inside fourteen days of delivery. Ask the desk to clear it, and it travels back on our insured label. Five percent restocking and that label come off the refund under the refund policy. A resized chain stays final.

How much is a rolo chain?

Every listing shows its price, which follows its metal and its grams. For a quote on a rolo made your way, open the live chat or call or text 212-872-9692 from 10 AM ET.

About this collection
ABOUT THIS COLLECTION

Rolo Link Chains: Round, Even Links in Gold and Silver

Rolo chains at a glance

  • Gold: 14K white and rose gold, 18K white gold
  • Silver: .925 palladium silver, an alloy with palladium that helps it resist tarnish
  • Width: 1 mm to 4.5 mm
  • Length: 18 to 24 inches

Is a rolo chain the same as a cable chain?

Close cousins: both are a line of links of one size, and a rolo's links are rounder and fuller. The cable links are on cable and anchor chains.

Will a rolo chain hold a pendant?

Yes. The round links move freely, so a fine rolo carries a small pendant and a wide one stands alone. Keep the pendant no heavier than the chain; which chain for a pendant has the rule.

Can I get a rolo in another width or karat?

Yes. Our chain book holds rolo styles from 2.9 mm to 23.7 mm, made to order in 10K to 22K or in silver, with the weight at each length up to 30 inches.

More styles: women's gold chains, every style in men's gold chains, wheat chains and hollow gold chains.
