Its unmistakable and unique design clearly distinguishes the Figaro chain from other types of chains. It consists of flat chain links that are shaped differently. The Figaro chain consists of round and oval elements that are specially arranged: An oval link is followed by three or more round chain links before the arrangement is repeated. Figaro chains can be worn by women, men and children equally. The chain is available in different thicknesses, as well as in various materials. Figaro chains are often made of silver or gold, but there are also designs made of stainless steel. Men usually like to wear a solid version of the chain and women a more filigree one. Even if rather uncommon, filigree versions of the chain can be complemented with a pendant. Models with wider chain links should not be fitted with a pendant.
