Approximate Weight Notice: Due to the handcrafted nature of our jewelry and natural variations in gold alloys, listed weights are approximate. Minor differences may occur from piece to piece.
Long link, short link, all the way down.
The 5MM Solid Alternating Mariner Chain alternates a long mariner link with a short one, each divided by a center bar. The alternation breaks up the run so the chain reads as a pattern rather than a uniform rope. At 19 to 69 grams depending on purity and length, it spans everyday wear through full statement weight.
The center bars hold every link open and flat, so the chain lies in a continuous band rather than twisting. The alternating lengths then give it a visual cadence that a single-size mariner does not have.
Every piece is XRF tested for purity and priced by its final weight, so what you pay reflects the gold that actually goes into your chain.
Available in 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K and 24K solid gold, with yellow, white and rose gold options on 10K–18K. Lock hardware varies by purity: 10K through 22K offer your choice of Lobster Lock or Folding Clasp Lock, while 22K and 24K pair with a secure M Lock.
