Ships from Canada The Gold Solid Bead/Ball Chain Necklace — 1.9mm features a smooth bead-and-ball pattern: round gold spheres connected by short links, creating a soft, tactile chain with subtle catch-the-light highlights. At 1.9mm, this is a versatile everyday gauge — confident enough to wear alone, refined enough to layer with other chains.
Crafted in genuine 14K 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.
Every chain we sell is chosen and finished to one standard — it has to last. Here's how we make sure of that, from the workshop to your neck. Every chain is solid karat gold — not plated, not filled, not coated. The karat shown is what you get all the way through: 10K is 41.7% pure gold, 14K is 58.5%, and 18K is 75%. Each piece is hand-stamped before it leaves the workshop — marked with either its karat number (10K, 14K, 18K) or its European millesimal equivalent (417, 585, 750). Both mean the same thing. The stamp is your verification, and the Certificate of Authenticity in your box confirms it on paper. A chain isn't a one-time outfit piece — it's something you wear for years. Our pieces are made for that. Either way, every Rudix chain is inspected before it ships: solder is clean, clasps tested, finishes smooth. Treated well, your chain will outlast trends. Gold is sold by weight — and we list the weight up front for every piece. We list it as approximate because each chain is finished individually, and minor production variations mean the actual weight may vary slightly from the listed figure (typically within a few percent). We'd rather be honest than pretend chains roll off a press identical to the gram. The Certificate of Authenticity in your box shows the actual weight of your specific piece. Because we work directly with our manufacturer, our pricing reflects the gold and the craftsmanship — not three middlemen between the workshop and your door. Every chain ships with a 3-Year Extended Care Plan at no extra cost — annual professional cleaning and polish, plus covered repairs for normal wear. After three years, you can renew at our member-friendly rate. We're a real shop in Hamilton, Ontario. Call us, email us, or walk in. If anything ever needs attention years from now, you talk to a person who knows the piece — not a call center.Why Rudix Quality

Quick, honest answers to the questions our customers ask most often before buying a Rudix gold chain. Yes — every Rudix chain is genuine karat gold throughout (10K, 14K, or 18K). Not gold-plated brass. Not gold-filled. Whether the construction is solid or hollow (shown in the specifications above), every surface and every interior wall is real karat gold of the marked purity. Each piece is hand-stamped with its karat purity (10K / 417, 14K / 585, or 18K / 750) and arrives with a Certificate of Authenticity. Take it to any jeweler in the world and the stamp will match the spec. Both are real karat gold from end to end — the difference is the construction inside each link. Solid for substance and maximum durability. Hollow for the look of a thicker chain at a lighter weight and price. Construction type for this piece is shown in the specifications above. Because we're selling actual gold, not a layer of gold over base metal. A $20 "18K gold plated" chain online is a brass or copper chain with a microscopic gold coating. The plating wears off in months, the base metal underneath tarnishes and reacts with skin, and the chain has no resale or melt value. A Rudix chain is solid or hollow karat gold throughout — meaning if you melted it down tomorrow, the entire piece would weigh out as real 10K, 14K, or 18K gold at current market prices. It holds its value, doesn't tarnish, and is genuinely heirloom-quality. You're paying for the metal itself, not just a finish. With the right seller, yes. Here's how Rudix protects you: A few things set us apart: If anything ever needs attention years from now, you don't talk to a chatbot — you talk to us. No — and here's the honest version. Genuine karat gold doesn't corrode or turn skin green the way gold-plated or base-metal jewelry does. Your chain keeps its real-gold value for a lifetime. What does happen naturally with any fine gold jewelry: the original mirror-bright finish gradually softens as the surface picks up micro-scratches from everyday wear, and skin oils, lotions, and perfume can build up in the link crevices and dull the shine. This is normal for all karat gold regardless of brand — and it's fully reversible with cleaning. A note on white gold specifically: the bright silvery finish comes from a thin layer of rhodium plating, standard across the fine jewelry industry. The rhodium gradually wears over 1–3 years and is refreshed during routine professional cleaning. Your 3-Year Extended Care Plan covers free annual professional polish and cleaning for three full years — included with every purchase. Standard guide for most adults: Tip: measure a chain you already wear and love — that's your length. Yes — chain gauge determines which pendants will work: Mixing karats is completely fine — a 14K chain happily carries an 18K pendant. Color compatibility (yellow, white, rose) matters more visually than karat purity. Daily wear: yes. Gold chains are made to be worn often. Showering, swimming, exercising, sleeping: no. Apply lotions, perfumes, and hairspray before putting it on. Take it off at night. Treated well, your chain will look new for years — see our Care Instructions section for the full routine. Honest answer: it's approximate, not exact. Each chain is finished individually, and minor production variations mean the actual weight may vary slightly from the listed figure (typically within a few percent). We list approximate weights because we'd rather be honest than pretend every chain comes out identical to the gram. The Certificate of Authenticity that ships with your order shows the actual weight of your specific piece. The lengths shown are kept in regular stock. Custom lengths or special sizes may be available on request — email info@rudixjewellery.com with your specs and we'll quote it. Note: custom and special-order pieces are not eligible for return unless there's a manufacturing defect. Every Rudix chain arrives complete with: Full details in our Your Rudix Package section. Easy — they have 30 days from delivery to return or exchange it for something they'll actually wear. Just keep the chain in its original condition with all included components (jewelry box, Certificate of Authenticity, polishing cloth, care card). A note for gift-givers: custom, engraved, personalized, or sized pieces are non-returnable, along with clearance and final-sale items. If you'd like the option to return or exchange, choose a standard piece without modifications. The receipt isn't included in the gift box by default; just leave a note at checkout if you'd like a gift message instead.Frequently Asked Questions

Once per year, for three full years, your plan covers: Each benefit is redeemable once per year and does not accumulate. Services must be utilized within each year of coverage and do not carry over to subsequent years. For any repair that involves replacing a clasp, a link, or any other component, you must bring the broken part(s) back with the chain. This protects both of us. It confirms the part failed through normal wear and isn't simply missing — and it lets us match the gauge, weight, and finish of the original. Pieces brought in without their broken components will be assessed individually and may not be covered. The Care Plan covers normal wear and accidental damage subject to inspection. It does not cover: If something falls outside the plan, we'll tell you up front, give you an honest quote, and the choice is yours.
