HOLLOW ROPES- Good bad and the ugly!

I wanted to start reviewing some hollow chains. I did a generic review a while back but I want to be more specific. I started with the most popular chain- ROPE. The rope chain is an iconic gold chain. It's been around forever and now it's more popular than ever. I don't like hollow rope chains because I don't trust rope chains 100% even when they're solid. Especially at the smaller widths. I do think it's worth researching before you buy a hollow gold chain.

[@hiphopjewels]

Hollow definitely has it's issues, but I prefer it over plated stuff. At least it will never tarnish, and as long as you handle it with care, it will last awhile. And, you can still get a few bucks for it, when it breaks and you scrap it. I had a hollow figaro back in the day. It lasted awhile, but I could start seeing little dents or dings in it over time from wear and tear. I have a hollow gold link bracelet, unique, like a round heavy link design, but it got dented when I slammed my wrist down on a table. I'm definitely done with hollow stuff. But, back then, I was young, and bought what I could afford. It's okay to buy plated or hollow, if that's all you can afford, and you don't want to wait to save up for something solid. I'm in my 40s and outgrew dealing with the hollow stuff. I went from plated, to hollow, to solid 10KT, to solid 14KT. I might buy my first 18KT gold chain soon. It's okay to grow into this jewelry game.

[@amandaaloveess]

[@vincea2092]

In my opinion, rope chains in general are not a lifetime chain regardless whether its hallow or solid. I recieved a solid 10k 2mm rope for christmas from my parents when I was in high school in the mid 90s. I wore it regularly for the past 25 years or so. A few years ago, the individual threads began to break and scratch at my skin. I would push them back inward to stop the irritation. Finally about 6 months ago, the chain began to break completely at the weak points where the threads broke. Over the last few months, I've taken it in to be soldered 3-4 times all in different points on the chain. I gave up after the 5th and final split near the clasp, and decided to scrap it completely after 25 years. I just bought a 4.5mm figaro from Jacoje (of which I've been wanting for years) which I love. The friction created by my pendants no doubt contributed to the demise of my old solid 10k rope, and am looking to get a 2mm franco in the near future from Jacoje for them in replacement of it. I'm done with ropes. They also high maintenance since they get caught in cotton shirts and pull at chest hairs as well. Gross constantly picking lint and hairs out of the micro links in them. This also factors into the eventual breakage of them.

[@hiphopjewels]

True. Unless you're going to get a pretty thick solid rope chain, you can count on the structure not being the most sturdy, compared to other options out there. And, it's not like they're the lightest weight chains out there when they're solid. So, you'll pay good money and the structure might not hold up as well as a Franco, Figaro, Curb or other link chain. People like ropes because they draw a lot of attention. It is a classic look. I want one rope in my collection, but it will be about 7mm, and I won't have more than one rope.

[@hunterjohnson8200]

I have 2 hollow rope chains. My kids play with them and I wear them everyday. They ain't that bad. Yes they light and I feel like if I slip up they will brake. My solid chains feel much better. Id rather hollow then plated. You can clean them with no worries also you have real gold. If you can't get solid go get hollow just don't be rough on it.

[@MasterOfNone88]

Just wanted to add some insight from a person who ONLY wears chains when going out. I do not regularly wear chains on a daily basis. i don’t like the feeling of things on my neck. I buy Hollow Chains. i have a 3mm hollow rope chain i bought 6 years ago. i paid $180 (gold was cheaper back then). i threw a a solid gold jesus piece on it. why? to add weight to the chain when i wore it. i also have a 5mm hollow gold cuban that i bought 2 years ago from the mall..i only paid $400 for it. i do not recall the exact gram weight ( i think 22grams) and it is heavy enough to wear plain. it is still in good shape. moral of this is: fuck what others think, do you. Hollow is perfectly fine for an occasional jewelry wearer. still get compliments on my chains. Also take care of your stuff and it WILL last. at least it’s not gold filled, gold plated, gold dipped, gold chopped, gold smeared....yeah.

[@jacobduboise333]

I bought a hollow rope chain in Russia, they call it 585. I think it means the gold is 14k. They use some stronger metal in the alloy besides copper, I have snagged the chain on my shirt several times and not broke it. it is only about 6.5 grams.

Dont say hallow is no good or you cant fix it. I bought an 18k hollow out in Qatar and its been 2 years going strong and daily use with no damage. 18k is much softer than the usual gold chains. Maybe i got lucky or its the fact that I don't let how tug on it.

So I was on the fence.... 20" 10kt SOLID Fiagro for $800 Or 22" 10kt HOLLOW Figaro for $250 from Walmart. I had already put money down on the solid chain at a local pawnshop. Then saw the hollow chain at Walmart that's 2" longer and $550 cheaper! The 20" solid weighs 21.3 grams. I dont know what the hollow weighs. But I want to wear it forever (I'm 32) so I'm betting 30+ years of wear on it. Jacoje convinced me to STAY SOLID! Thanks bro

[@Lickxmyxkicks]

I have to concur...avoid hollow chains. I had a hollow bracelet a while back and it just looked oddly puffy...I wore it pretty much daily and it got a number of weird dents on it and overall looked cheap.

[@joshua22267]

When would you say a hollow rope chain is good for average use. Meaning, not the slightest tug will break the chain, that you could see that rope chain lasting a couple years if really taken care of. Would you say at 3mm, they become good for average use, 4mm, 5mm? Obviously the bigger the mm, the more gold, so obviously the thicker you go with hollows its fair to say it gets stronger, but what is a decent low mm hollow to start for a newbie who doesn't have a huge budget. For example I just bought a 10k 3mm supposed to be 3.6 gram hollow rope chain with a 2 year protection plan covering all issues for around $220. My plan is to keep it maybe for a year, then try to go from that mabe to a 3mm solid chain, mabe a little bigger, we will see. My goal is to work my way up to a nice size solid rope chain for me, then to branch out and get all three colors. Would you say I made the best choice regarding my circumstances? I purchased from a reputable gold seller as well on ebay, been in business since 2005, has rewards, not one complaint of fake stuff, dont even see complaints about broken chains. I hope a got a good short term cool gold chain.

Just go with a smaller mm buy solid don't get caught in the trap I have bone spurs in my neck and I personally can wear up to a 90 grm. Chain comfortable as long as I don't have a pendant heavier than 50 grams. With it

I bought a hallow figaro chain, i didnt know anything about gold and it was my first chain. I was disappointed when learning more about gold because i got ripped off by the fancy jewelry store. Ive had it 4months now, ive slept w it on accident, showered w it, its my daily chain no complaints but yes it feels weak. I dented it on purpose just from being curious on what hallow was smash

I have a 4.5mm rope chain . I want to wear it with a 1.6mm rope chain. I wonder if my solid 1.6mm chain with eventually alter and dent my hollow 4.5mm, anyone have experience with this?

Bought a white gold rope broken in a week. Never again! Solid means solid wish you could or would talk about semi solid/ semi hollow.

Hollow is a starter chain until you can upgrade.
