@@egadjewelry6025 hey how are you ...is it possible to take a 26 inch semi hollow cuban link chain and shorten it to 22 inches? ..its 33 grams and it has some bulk to it ....also i may have asked you on another post lol

[@egadjewelry6025]

@@michaelbasile6388 HI! Yes that should be fine, what kind of catch does it have? If it has end caps, it should be an easy job, (just cutting, then moving the end cap to the 22" mark) if it has a box link catch without end caps, you may end up with a stiff link. You can email me pics at [e-mail] and we may be able to help you with telling you how to shorten it.

Hello my friend, I like your explanation and the way you work, and I want to ask if I want to make a hand chain that weighs 100 grams, 875 caliber, and measures 19. Please tell me what equation I should use.

[@DanielPark-nn8pc]

Thank you for the updated video. Is dish soap fine to clean out jewelry with the ultrasonic or would you recommend something more aggressive?

[@simonalbadin6093]

Is there an equation for this if I want to make something else? Thank you

My youngest son that’s 11 has a 16” Gold Rope Chain 10K hollow and he hasn’t had issues until today it broke. It’s only a $200 chain but I still would like it fixed. What would a good price be for this repair when I get estimates from a few places here in Arizona?

[@HardBassFeZ]

I have a small 50 cm long 2 mm width gold fígaro chain, it weights 4.4 grams, they say is hollow but how is it possible to make such tiny hollow links?

Can you extend a 22 inch 5.5 mm mariner chain. To a 26 or 28 inch mariner if I have a section of the exact 5.5 mm mariner links from a bracelet I have. That matches the chain ? Thanks Joe

[@egadjewelry6025]

Hey Joe! As long as the links are identical you should be able to do that! Hollow links would be much more difficult rather than solid.

Hey I live in Birmingham Al, do you know someone in Alabama that could fix my hollow rope necklace chain

[@egadjewelry6025]

Hi! Unfortunately, we do not know anyone in Alabama who fixes jewelry.

[@2bored4life]

Roughly How much for a this type of repair?

[@egadjewelry6025]

Hi! This would probably be about $25-$50, depending on the amount of solder you use.

[@davidwhisenant5328]

Is it possible to add a few pieces of that solder to the inside of one of my Figaro chain links where it wore down a little too thin??, I have always wondered about that because otherwise it is a great chain, and it is a pretty big chain, 10k 20in 29.4 grams

This chain was hollow gold!

@@egadjewelry6025 I bought the chain on MAY 11, 2022 for 36,147php OR In dollar $682.32 Price of the chain is it worthy or not?

[@egadjewelry6025]

@@ashajhi Oh were you asking if your chain is hollow or solid? Sorry I thought you meant the chain in the video. I can't tell unless I feel it, but if it's hollow it will feel a lot lighter vs a solid chain is going to feel heavier and solid. You can also look at the links, if there is an open link check if it's tube being used (hollow) or solid wire. At $682.32 for 6.4 grams, you paid about $106 a gram for 18K which is a little pricey but if it is a brand new chain, that sounds about right. Hope this helps, let me know if I can help further. Thanks, Jeni

So rope hollow necklace not good to buy then??

[@egadjewelry6025]

Hi, hollow ropes will break easier, it's always better to buy solid gold instead of hollow. Soon we are going to make a video explaining the chains you shouldn't buy. Keep an eye out for our next video! Thanks!

[@angelbluerider9588]

A jeweler selling me a 26inch, 20.1 grams 6mm rope for $700 10k. I wonder if thats worth buying. But i remember you saying hollow isnt that good to buy.

[@egadjewelry6025]

​@@angelbluerider9588 That is not a bad price at all! But hollow is more likely to break at the end of the day, so we would suggest you save up for a solid one that will be worth the investment/last a lifetime. :)

@@egadjewelry6025 which is better 5.5mm 21 inch 10k Italy stamped at 14.5 grams or 7.5mm 20inch, 7.5mm 12.1grams. I thinking the 5.5 is stronger and better due to grams right? 5.5mm is $400 vs 7.5mm $540. The 7.5 not italy made.

[@egadjewelry6025]

@@angelbluerider9588 It is really up to you, which one feels/looks better for you. Like you said the 5.5mm is less expensive with the grams to price ratio. 400/14.5= 27.5 a gram vs. 540/12.1=44.5 a gram. We will always recommend 14k over 10k because 10k is harder and more brittle, vs. 14k is softer but more durable/less likely to break in the long run. I hope that helps!
