Silver Necklaces - Chains & Pendant Necklaces - Fraser Ross

Often you will hear people say that they are a ‘silver’ or ‘gold’ person. What they really mean is that they prefer the colour silver over the colour of yellow gold. A silver necklace is very close in colour to a white gold necklace, slightly less in weight and considerably less in cost.

The real reason the majority of people would choose a silver chain over a white gold chain is simply the expense. Most people couldn’t tell the difference just by looking at them and if the silver chain is well made, it will last just as long as a gold chain will.

Sterling silver and fine silver do however tarnish with time. This is actually a chemical reaction between the silver and sulphur compounds found in the air or even in perspiration. The reaction causes some of the silver to be converted into silver sulphide, and the colour of the silver becomes slightly yellowish. As the tarnish progresses further with time, the yellow colour darkens and eventually will become nearly black.

Fortunately, it is pretty simple to remove tarnish and restore the necklace or bracelet to looking brand new again. Tarnishing isn’t a ‘problem’ with the quality of the jewellery. The Queen has some magnificent silver and her staff have to polish and clean it regularly to remove and prevent tarnish. I’m sure that every piece of her silver is the best quality money can buy, so don’t blame tarnish on the jewellery, blame it on the metal itself.

We stock a wide range of sterling silver chains in many styles, all of which can be made to any length. This allows you to have the design of your choice made into a bracelet, anklet or silver necklace to the exact length that fits you perfectly.

In addition to our silver necklace chains, we have silver bracelets in all the same styles, so you can mix and match to create a matching set. Our sterling silver charm bracelets have been chosen for their open style links. These are typically long curb, cable and belcher chain styles, and the open links allow for easy fitting of the jump rings to hold your charms in place. The belcher chains are most suitable for charm bracelets, and the smaller width chains have more links than the larger width chains per inch. The more links, the more choices for attaching charms, and the B3 is our most popular chain for people who want a sterling silver charm bracelet.


With a range of over 4600 charms (and growing) order a number of charms and a silver bracelet and we will send you a beautiful silver charm bracelet made just for you and ready to wear. We are happy to offer the same service with our solid gold charms and gold bracelets.

Our figaro chains have only one smaller link connected to the larger more rectangular link, this gives our chains a romantic and feminine appearance. 

Box Chains : Box chains are an interesting and unique chain design, they make a great stage to show off a delicate necklace pendant, however heavier pendants aren’t highly recommended as box chains tend to be more fragile than they appear.

Buy Gold Necklaces Online - Fraser Ross Australia - Gold Necklaces

When you buy gold necklaces, what qualities do you look for in your precious metal jewellery purchase? Is it a low price? Perhaps it's the carat count or a customizable length. Wouldn't it be great if you could find all of these qualities at a single precious metal jewellery retailer?



Your Wish Is Our Command

It's not just a fantasy or a whimsical wish – Fraser Ross offers all of these qualities and more! Gold necklaces are just the beginning when it comes to our Australian online outlet, and there's plenty more where that came from. Our inventory is bursting with amazing finds and affordable gold and sterling silver jewellery that's designed to please.

Gold Necklaces On The... Cheap?

Cheap? Wait, let's back up a second. Fraser Ross sells the most affordable precious metal jewellery around, but don't confuse us with cheap imitation jewellery retailers. We don't use any fillers, plating or substitutes – every piece of jewellery is legit.  Cheap does not equal affordable. Cheap sacrifices quality in order to give buyers a low price, but we keep our prices low without losing the quality of our 9-carat gold and 925 sterling silver.

How Does Fraser Ross Keep Its Prices Low?

Ross Fraser, owner of Fraser Ross (formerly Chain Me Up), began selling jewellery at the manufacturer price more than ten years ago. Ross worked for a jewellery manufacturer and, after receiving numerous requests for bargain jewellery, was inspired to start his own company, and thus Fraser Ross was born. Fraser Ross sources 95% of its inventory from local manufacturers and retailers to keep costs down in order to sell affordable jewellery that buyers love.

Gold Necklaces - fraserross.com.au - Jewellery Designs

Gold necklaces are a classy statement that you can wear with just about anything. Whether it's an understated cable chain with your favorite long-sleeve top, or a glistening curb chain to go with a sophisticated evening gown, gold necklaces add a special spark to your outfit.



Why Buy Gold?

Gold has been around the longest out of all the precious metals, and it's been the most valuable for just as long. Throughout the years, gold has been used as a currency in just about every nation. Its value still holds today when other currencies have failed, so it's easy to see why this coveted, carat-packed nugget is on everyone's Christmas list.

Which Gold Necklace Should I Choose?

Fraser Ross holds over 150 styles of precious metal chains. That's a hefty number to sort through, but we'll tell you about the main types of recognizable gold chain styles that are the basis of our inventory.

Figaro You may have been able to guess already, but this chain type comes from Italy. The romantic name and masculine design will have you swooning when you see how gorgeous the links are, how they glimmer and shine like the sweet notes of a barcarolle.

Curb Curb chains are fascinating; they reflect light more than any other chain type, but that's because they've been cut in a way that catches light beams and throws them out again full force. This process is called bevelling. D-cut (short for 'diamond cut') curb chains are the shiniest of all, and they look great as plain necklaces.

 Cable Cable chains have small links and are more delicate than other chain types. For this reason, they are best suited to women because of their design. It's rare to find a cable chain in a thicker style. Most will be thin to medium, and they pair wonderfully with a solid color evening dress.

Belcher Belcher chains are a favorite chain type for charm bracelets. The open links provide enough space for charms to attach with little or no fuss, but they also make beautiful chains for gold necklaces, especially if you plan to attach a pendant to it.


Gold necklaces make a statement wherever they go. Make sure to buy your next one from Fraser Ross, Australia's #1 precious metal jewellery retailer.
