Product Description
The 24K Open Link Gold Chain is a timeless statement of luxury, purity, and investment value. Inspired by designs made popular by Cartier and Hermès, it features bold, interlocking links that catch light beautifully while maintaining a strong, elegant structure. Unlike most U.S. jewelry, which is alloyed and heavily marked up, this chain is handcrafted from 99.9% pure 24K gold, offering both beauty and full intrinsic worth.
Each chain is custom-made to order. You can choose the length, width, and weight. Pricing is based on the live gold spot rate plus YinCity Gold’s transparent 42% markup, far below the 200–300% premiums of luxury retailers.
Delivered with a certificate of authenticity and purity, and crafted to LBMA standards, this piece is designed for daily wear while holding lasting value. The 24K Open Link Gold Chain isn’t just jewelry, it’s a wearable financial asset.

| Feature | Why It Matters |
|---|---|

| Minimal Markup | Fixed 42% markup for craftsmanship + operations. Transparent pricing. No inflated luxury brand premiums. |
| Custom Fit & Style | Lengths, thicknesses tailored to you. Unlike pre-molded designs, you get what fits your style and investment plan. |
| Durability with Daily Wear | Despite being pure, the open link style (with strong links and precise craftsmanship) ensures long-lasting wear. Best care will preserve shine and structure. |
| Authenticity & Certification | Comes with a certificate of purity and authenticity. YinCity Gold jewelry meets or exceeds LBMA standards. |
