Gold Karat Guide
The Yellow Gold Solid Domed Curb Chain Necklace — 3.5mm features the timeless curb pattern: uniform, flat-lying oval links twisted and interlocked so the chain sits perfectly flat against the skin. At 3.5mm, this is a noticeable, presence-on-the-neck gauge — substantial enough to wear alone or hold a meaningful pendant.
Crafted in genuine 10K, 14K, and 18K gold with solid construction throughout, this chain is designed to be worn for a lifetime. Pair it with one of our gold pendants for a complete look.

Start with the people who already bought: read our customer reviews, or see us on Google. Then read why clients across Canada and the United States trust Rudix for solid gold chains built to wear every day. Our chains are solid karat gold (10k, 14k, or 18k as listed) — not plated, filled, or coated. Each piece is stamped for purity and backed by a Certificate of Authenticity in the box, so you know the karat matches what you ordered. Width (gauge), length, and clasp matter as much as the link style. Use the Gold Chain Length Guide on this page for sizing, then pick a gauge that fits how you wear it — alone, layered, or with a pendant. Clasps are tested before shipping so everyday open-and-close feels secure. Gold is sold by weight. We list approximate gram weight up front; your Certificate of Authenticity shows the actual weight of your piece. We come from wholesale roots (Soheil’s Gems since 2007; Rudix retail since 2017) — fewer middleman markups, clearer tickets. Soheil and Vicki run a Hamilton showroom, not a call-center checkout. Ask about solid vs hollow, length, gauge, or matching a pendant — we explain options clearly so you feel confident before you spend. A good chain is meant to be worn for years: birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, or just everyday style. Solid constructions handle daily life; hollow options stay lighter when you want presence without the same gram weight. Either way, we inspect solder, clasp, and finish before it leaves. Eligible chains include our 3-Year Extended Care Plan — polish/clean and repairable clasp or link work with clear, fair coverage. See What’s Included on this page for what comes with your chain.Why Choose Rudix for Your Gold Chain

Straight answers before you order. For why people choose Rudix, see Why Choose Rudix for Your Gold Chain above, or read the reviews. Yes. Our chains are solid 10k, 14k, or 18k gold as listed on the product page — never plated or filled. Each piece is stamped for purity and ships with a Certificate of Authenticity. Solid chains are denser and built for heavy daily wear. Hollow chains use the same karat gold but with less mass, so they sit lighter and cost less by weight. The product page notes which construction this style uses. Use the Gold Chain Length Guide on this page for common lengths (e.g. 16"–18" for closer fits, 20"–24" for looser or layering looks). Gauge (width in mm) affects presence and pendant compatibility — finer gauges suit delicate pendants; thicker gauges stand alone. Most chains work with a pendant when the bail fits the link size. Matching karat and metal color looks best. Unsure? Contact us with the chain width and pendant bail size and we will advise. Pieces marked Available usually ship within about 4 business days. Custom lengths or made-to-order work can take up to about 3 weeks, including finishing and paperwork when included. See Fulfillment Information on this page.
