  • I wanted to make a review video comparing the differences in 14KT vs 18KT for just the Franco chain. The Franco chain is a very popular chain and an in depth video is needed! Thank you for watching!

    If you’re on a budget go 14k but if you have the money always go 18k.
    It’s hard to tell on cam but you 100% tell the difference in person.

      What is considered “solid” in chains ?
      I bought a nexkless the other day and the dude that sold it to me said it was solid 14k (51grams), but before I went to him, I went to another guy and tried to sell me another neckless that was 22 grams and he also said it was “solid”
      At what grams for a chain is considered solid/hollow? I’m confused. Does solid start at like 30g?

      @@Turtlemilk Both of those chains could be solid gold. Weight will always be heavier with solid jewelry but the weight doesn't solely determine if a piece of jewelry is solid or hollow. There are solid chains that only weigh 5 grams and there are hollow chains that weigh 20 grams. Hollow chains have empty space in between the links and solid chains have the links completely filled with gold / alloy. Solid will always be better quality and more expensive when compared to identical hollow pieces.

      If you're on a budget and you want 18k then don't get 14k. Just save until you can afford what you want. I never understood the logic by Jacoje saying "oh this is a good starter chain". A chain is a timeless piece that is an investment. Get something that you will want to wear for the rest of your life, not what you can currently afford.

    At the end of the day, your 14k or 18k chain should outlast your life. Do you want to save a lil money now or spend a lil extra so the grandkids have more gold weight? 14k works for me. It’s beautiful. I do enjoy 18k for my rings though.

      @@beri232 It can be when you add stones. But by rings, I’m talking strictly wedding bands which I should’ve clarified better. I just got a 5mm polished 18k ring from Braden and Jacoje fam. Absolutely love it. Gold will scratch either way, but I respect the gold weight in 18k as well as the color hue (even if it’s casted in house baby).

    All my gold is 14kt because I enjoy the light yellow color of 14kt gold. Unpopular opinion but I prefer 14kt color over 18kt+. The orangish color to high purities just doesn't do it for me. Plus the added durability and being more affordable is a bonus.

Only when you bring up the chain to someone’s attention they’ll notice it. I think a lot of people cap on here. It’s nice chain but a lot of people have these nowadays
