Gold Carded Cable Rope Chain

A gold carded cable rope chain at Seattle Gold Grills is solid 10K or 14K gold supplied on a display card, which makes it an easy gift and an easy way to compare lengths side by side. The shop is a family business in Renton, Washington, in gold since 1976, serving Seattle and the Puget Sound area and shipping nationwide, fully insured with signature required.

Cable and Rope on One Card

The two patterns behave differently at the neck. A cable link is open and even, so the chain reads as a simple line and takes a pendant without fuss. A rope twists its strands into a spiral, so the chain picks up light from every direction and holds its own without a pendant. Having both on a card means you can see which one suits the shirt you wear most before the chain leaves the package.

How Gold Chains Are Priced

Gold chains are priced by weight at the current gold market, so the price on each listing updates with the gold price. A rope twist uses more gold per inch than a cable of the same width, so the two patterns do not sit at the same number. Heavier widths and longer lengths cost more, and each listing carries the figure for that chain.

Care and Wear

Cable links are simple to clean: warm water, mild soap, a soft brush, then dry flat. A rope wants a little more attention because the spiral holds lint, so brush along the twist rather than across it. Neither chain should be stored hanging, which stretches the links over time.

The gold cable chain and the gold regular rope chain show both patterns in the full range of sizes. Browse all chains, price a custom piece in the Chain and Pendant Builder, or book a showroom visit in Renton.
