SILVER 1MM FINE CURB CHAIN
Christine Alexander Fine Jewellery
Right, jewellery people, I have a confession: I love a chain that refuses to be pigeonholed.
This beautifully simple 925 Sterling Silver Curb Chain is just 1mm wide, which makes it delicate enough for minimalist everyday wear, but versatile enough to become the starting point for all sorts of jewellery-related shenanigans.
Wear it on its own for that lovely understated Silver sparkle. Add your favourite pendant, and suddenly you've got a completely different necklace. Or — because apparently jewellery has decided it wants to be useful as well as pretty — this little beauty can also be worn as a lightweight sunglasses chain, glasses chain or mask chain.
Basically, it's the jewellery equivalent of the friend who brings snacks, remembers everyone's birthday and somehow has a phone charger in their handbag.
A Classic Curb Chain, Without the Drama
I've chosen this solid 925 Sterling Silver Curb Chain because the classic curb-link design is one of those wonderfully timeless styles that simply works.
At 1mm wide, it's fine and delicate, making it particularly lovely for layering with other necklaces or wearing with a small-to-medium lightweight pendant.
The links have been hand-polished, giving the Silver a beautiful reflective sparkle without making it look unnecessarily fussy.
And because I firmly believe jewellery should earn its keep, this chain can be styled in several ways:
✨ Wear it alone as a minimalist Silver necklace
✨ Add a favourite pendant or charm
✨ Layer it with other chains
✨ Use it as a lightweight sunglasses chain
✨ Wear it as a lightweight glasses chain
✨ Use it with a lightweight mask
Please note: when using it as a glasses, sunglasses or mask chain, it is intended for lightweight items only. It isn't designed to support heavy spectacles or substantial objects. We are accessorising here, not towing a caravan.
Pick Your Perfect Length
I offer this Sterling Silver Curb Chain in lengths from 16 to 30 inches, so you can choose the length that works with your neckline, pendant or preferred layering style.
Whether you're after a short, delicate 16-inch Silver chain or something longer for layering and statement pendants, there's plenty of scope to create your own look.
And if you can't decide?
Buy more than one.
This is jewellery. There are no rules.
Well, there are some rules. Mostly about not wearing it in a swimming pool.
Add a Pendant & Save
I sell my chains and pendants separately because apparently we don't all have identical taste — which is both sensible and slightly inconvenient for me.
The good news is that chains are discounted when purchased with a pendant, with the discount automatically added at checkout.
So if you've been eyeing up one of my pendants and thinking, "Lovely, but now I need something to hang it from," I've got you covered.
A Little Silver History
Silver has accumulated quite the mythology over the centuries.
In folklore, Silver was believed to possess mystical powers and has famously been associated with protection against werewolves, witches and other creatures who presumably had a very poor relationship with precious metals.
It also has some rather less wholesome historical associations. The phrase "thirty pieces of Silver" comes from the New Testament account of Judas Iscariot being paid to betray Jesus.
So Silver has somehow managed to represent purity, protection, wealth, betrayal and werewolf-related weaponry.
And now it's holding your sunglasses.
History is weird.

Jewellery Care – Because Silver Likes a Little Attention
Sterling Silver naturally develops tarnish over time when exposed to air, moisture and certain chemicals. This is completely normal and doesn't mean anything is wrong with your jewellery.
To keep your 925 Sterling Silver chain looking its best, I recommend removing it before swimming, bathing, showering, exercising and sleeping where practical.
Keep it away from perfume, hairspray, creams, chlorine and household cleaning products, and store it somewhere dry when you're not wearing it.
A good quality Silver polishing cloth will bring back the shine beautifully if it starts to dull.
And if you're using it as a glasses or sunglasses chain, do remember that it is a delicate 1mm chain. Treat it accordingly. It is stylish, not indestructible.
