About this item
- Real 14K yellow gold all the way through. 14 karat is 58.5% pure gold mixed with harder metals, the everyday standard for fine jewelry; nothing is plated, so nothing wears off. A certified appraisal comes in the box.
- A tight four-sided weave that lies flat and sturdy. The Franco chain's dense weave gives a smooth, near-seamless drape that holds up to daily wear.
- Hollow build, 16 grams at 22 inches. The links are formed around an empty center: lighter on the neck and less costly than a solid franco of the same width. Treat it with care; a hollow chain can kink if it is yanked. A solid Franco chain will not kink or snag — the low-maintenance pick for carrying a pendant every day.
- 3.5 mm wide. Wear it on its own or with a pendant; text a jeweler a photo of the pendant and they will say straight whether this chain carries it.
- Three lengths: 22, 24 and 26 inches. The length guide photo in the gallery (picture 5) shows where a franco chain sits; text a jeweler at 212-872-9692.
- Listed for men. Sold and shipped by TraxNYC, 64 W 47th St, New York, in business since 2004. Secondhand Dealer License 2123575-DCWP.

Description
Franco links, hollow, in 14K yellow gold: 3.5 mm wide with a listed weight of 15.95 grams. Hollow links give the look of a Franco with less weight on the neck. The one thing to know: a hollow chain can dent if it is crushed, so it lives better on the neck or in a box than loose in a bag. Lengths are 22, 24 and 26 inches. US orders include a TraxNYC appraisal that records its gram weight. For personal service, call a TraxNYC jeweler at 212-TRAXNYC (212-872-9692) during business hours.

Questions & answers
Q:
What metal is it, and is hollow gold real gold?
A:
Real 14K yellow gold, hollow links, 16 grams at 22 inches. 14 karat is 58.5% pure gold; nothing is plated, so nothing wears off. Hollow describes the shape of the links, formed around an empty center, not the metal: that is why it weighs less and costs less than a solid franco of the same width. The certified appraisal in the box states the metal and the weight.
Q:
Can I hang a pendant on a 3.5 mm hollow franco?
A:
A small, light pendant, yes. Skip heavy pieces on a hollow chain: a hard pull can kink a hollow link, and a kinked hollow link is harder to repair than a solid one. Text a jeweler a photo of the pendant and they will say straight which chain carries it. The pendant under "Pair it with a pendant" goes into the cart with this chain in one tap.
Q:
Which length should I get?
A:
18 sits at the collarbone, 20 and 22 sit mid-chest, and 24 in and longer drapes below the chest for layering. The length guide photo in the gallery (picture 5) shows where a franco chain sits. Text your height and build to 212-872-9692 and a jeweler will say which one. Men's gold chain buyer's guide.
