Inspired by historical nautical hardware, this round link with a center bar was designed at the turn of the century to keep the chain free from kinking while sailing the worldly seas. Our designer adapted the link to have a decorative area that is designed to layer with both black and multi color looks with beautiful glossy enamel. Our silver items have a protective lacquer finish to help prevent oxidation. To care for our silver items, simply wipe down your pieces with a dry, 100% cotton cloth. Keep them away from water, jewelry cleaners, silver cleaners, treated polishing cloths, perfumes, hairspray, lotions, hand-sanitizers and make-up. We offer our own that you can safely use.
