Yes. All our jewellery is real 14 or 18 karat gold, with an official stamp in the gold as proof, and never plated. There's no other metal underneath, so the colour stays beautiful and you can wear it every day.

Which clasp do your chains have?

Most of our necklaces and bracelets close with a lobster clasp: strong and secure, so your piece stays where it belongs. You'll find the clasp of each piece in the specifications. And if a clasp doesn't work properly because of a production fault, you have a 1-year warranty on it.

A little shine for every day

This set was exactly what I was looking for. Something that is just there. It's very light, which I like and I love how delicate it looks.

KirstenVerified Buyer

Does the job perfectly

Great extender so I can layer my necklaces. Just make sure your necklace is made of the same type of chain

Gold Chain Necklaces for Women

A gold chain necklace is the backbone of a jewellery look, worn solo or layered. Every chain necklace at TOV Essentials is made of real 14k or 18k gold, stamped with its official 585 or 750 hallmark and backed by a digital Certificate of Authenticity, so you know exactly what you own. We design them in-house and make them directly with skilled European ateliers, without the middlemen most brands rely on.

Real gold, not plated, and why that matters

Real gold is not a gold layer over a cheaper base metal the way gold-plated chains are made. That is why it does not peel, fade, tarnish or mark your skin through years of wear, while plating wears thin within months. Our real gold is also nickel-free and hypoallergenic, a safe choice for sensitive skin. It costs more than plated jewellery because you pay for real gold rather than a coating, and less than the traditional luxury houses because we cut out the middlemen and put more of the price into the gold and the craftsmanship. Many women tell us it felt better made than they expected for the price.

Made for every day, still fine jewellery

Real gold handles daily life, so a chain you wear every day keeps its colour through showers and routines. Finer chains are light and delicate by design, so take them off for the gym, the pool and the sea and treat them with a little care; bolder links are sturdier but appreciate the same. Each chain is finished with a clasp matched to its weight, balancing a secure hold with comfort.

Find your chain

The link makes the chain, so we offer a range from subtle to statement:

Fine cable and rope chains for everyday layering
Bolder curb links for a stronger presence
Flat, smooth chains that sit close to the skin
Chains that pair with a pendant of your choice

Layer a bold chain over a fine necklace, or wear it on its own.

Buy your gold chain necklace at TOV Essentials

Every chain necklace is handcrafted in real gold, hallmarked and delivered with its Certificate of Authenticity. It is the same real gold the big names use, straight from the maker to you. Explore everything in our gold necklaces collection or browse all gold jewellery. Shop your gold chain necklace today.

Most of our necklaces adjust from 42 to 45 cm with the small rings at the clasp, so you choose where it sits: close to your collarbone or a little lower. Some have a fixed length, which you'll find in the specifications. The photos on the model show how each one falls.

Yes. All our jewellery is real 14 or 18 karat gold, with an official stamp in the gold as proof, and never plated. There's no other metal underneath, so the colour stays beautiful and you can wear it every day.

We don't adjust jewellery ourselves, but you have options. Our necklace extender adds up to 8 cm on necklaces it fits, so you choose your own length. Want it shorter? A jeweller can do that for you, but the warranty then no longer applies.

18 karat contains more pure gold: 75%, against 58.5% for 14 karat. That gives it a deeper, warmer yellow, and a higher price. 14 karat is a little harder, so it takes everyday knocks a little better and costs less. Both are real gold and never plated, so you simply choose on colour, budget and how you wear it.

Most of our necklaces and bracelets close with a lobster clasp: strong and secure, so your piece stays where it belongs. You'll find the clasp of each piece in the specifications. And if a clasp doesn't work properly because of a production fault, you have a 1-year warranty on it.

Yes. Our chains are real gold, so they don't rust or peel, and you can wear them every day. A fine chain is light and delicate by design, so take it off for sport and heavy work, then it can't catch on anything. That way it stays beautiful for years.

Yes. Every piece comes in a stylish box at no extra cost, with a digital Certificate of Authenticity. So it's ready to give right away, or to treat yourself.

Yes, that's the great thing about real gold: water doesn't harm it. Does it look a little dull after a while from soap or lotion? Just wipe it with our polishing cloth and it shines again. Does your piece have stones? Polish only the gold, and freshen the stones with lukewarm water, a drop of mild soap and a soft brush.

We're online only. That saves us shop costs and middlemen, and you notice it in the price: more gold for your money. Try it on at home, in your own time. If it doesn't fit, you exchange it for another size within 30 days, free in the EU.

We don't engrave, so your piece stays exactly as beautiful as when it left us. A jeweller can do it for you, but the warranty then no longer applies.

No worries. You have a 2-year warranty on manufacturing defects, and 1 year on stone settings and how clasps work. Send us a photo and we'll quickly find a solution together.

That depends on the piece, and the product name always tells you. Our diamonds are natural, colour F-G (near colourless) and clarity SI, and your digital certificate lists the details. Zirconia is a lab-made stone that sparkles strongly for a much lower price, always set in real gold. So you choose what suits you and your budget.
