About this item
- Real 18K yellow gold all the way through. 18 karat is 75% pure gold mixed with harder metals; 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.
- Solid build, 97.8 grams at 30 inches. Gold through every link: the heavier, longer-wearing build, and the right base for a pendant worn every day. A solid Franco chain will not kink or snag — the low-maintenance pick for carrying a pendant every day.
- 4 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.
- Listed for men. Sold and shipped by TraxNYC, 64 W 47th St, New York, in business since 2004. Secondhand Dealer License 2123575-DCWP.

Description
30 inches is the length that decides everything, and this 4mm Franco chain uses all of it. 18K is the connoisseur's karat: softer, heavier, and unmistakably richer in tone. The 18k gold franco chain 4mm 30 inch spec here is the version buyers screenshot.
Wide enough to wear alone, trim enough to stack — the most flexible band of the size chart. The franco chain format rewards patience at the bench, and it shows here. It photographs the way it wears — bright, even, no dead spots along the run. Size up or down inside the gold chain wall. Come see it in person at our Diamond District showroom in New York. It is 4 mm wide, 30 inches long and 97.8 grams.

What does it weigh?
97.8 grams at 30 inches. The final weight may vary slightly. The store's appraisal states the gram weight.
Why does it cost more than the gold? What is my trade-in worth?
You are buying the finished piece, not the metal: the gold, the labor that made it and the store's appraisal; every package also travels insured. We do not price by the gram. Have a number? Tap Make an offer. Trading in or selling gold is done in person at the store or by phone with a jeweler, never with a number online.
Can I make payments? Do you still do layaway?

You can also pay with Shop Pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal or a card, by bank wire (3% off), or in crypto: Ask in the chat on this page, or call or text 212-872-9692 (a person answers from 10 AM ET).
Can I hang a pendant on a 4 mm solid franco chain?

The pendant under "Pair it with a pendant" goes into the cart with this chain in one tap.
What metal is it?
Real 18K yellow gold: 18 karat is 75% pure gold, alloyed with harder metals for strength. Nothing is plated, so nothing wears off. Build: solid, as the name says.
Does it come with an appraisal or a certificate?
Every gold order ships with the store's appraisal: carat and gram weights, diamond grade and color, market value and the corporate seal. International orders get a digital appraisal.
How fast does it ship, and can I return it?
Every order ships insured from 47th Street. Handmade to order: usually ships in 4 to 8 weeks.
Returns: 14 calendar days from confirmed delivery, new and unworn, in the original packaging, on a label TraxNYC issues; an approved return carries a 5% restocking fee and $50 return shipping in the continental US ($100 international), and the original shipping is not refunded.
