Chain with weaving "Italian"

In ancient times, various chains were used not only to decorate the body, but also to wear religious symbols, amulets, amulets on the chest.

Various variations of weaves and shapes allow you to create a unique look with this jewelry. One of the oldest and strongest weaves - "Bismarck", has undergone many changes, created on its basis, the chain with weaving "Italiananka" is a popular and desired accessory today.

The original weaving differs from other types in its massiveness and versatility. Unique jewelry is created using a special technique of linking. Thanks to this, the chain has such an extraordinary shape and is particularly strong and durable.

The massive "Bismarck" gained particular popularity in the 90s, when a weighty gold chain was an indicator of wealth and high position in society. After some time, women also fell in love with the model, proving the versatility of jewelry.

Small changes have been made to the segment sizes, metal weight, and new colors have appeared, in addition to the classic yellow gold.

• Most often it is made of gold, silver, brass. The latter option significantly reduces the cost of the finished product, but this does not in any way affect its properties.
• The strength of the links allows you to be confident in the durability of such weaving. Also, it is not subject to deformation.
• A reliable lock on all products protects the links from breaking, they all adhere to each other quite tightly, in several rows.
• Weaving "Italian" is universal, such a chain around the neck is suitable for men and women, for any outfit and image.

• Arabic - an imitation of Arabic script when weaving elements of a round shape. The Arabian weave has the unique ability to reflect natural and artificial light, while cut diamonds add extra sparkle.

• Moscow - a loose connection, the effect of a weightless decoration. Typical when making bracelets.

• Oval - a dense interweaving of details in a fancy oval shape of the necklace.

• Weaving-trickle is a technique in which one round-shaped link seems to flow into another. Usually inexpensive and voluminous jewelry for men.

• Byzantium is a complex technique that can only be performed by true professionals of jewelry art. The infinity-shaped segments intertwine with regular links to form a truly luxurious necklace.

• Royal - a connection of links in the form of small crowns.

• The Italian is an original weaving that has transformed masculine massive chains into a graceful feminine accessory. The weight and volume of the product have significantly decreased, the pretentiousness has been replaced by solidity and self-confidence.

For weaving "Italiana", double and triple links are connected at different angles to each other. Weaving can be done both manually and automatically.

The main stages of manufacturing:

• Forming a wire from a metal alloy, twisting it and dividing it into parts with two or three turns.
• Connection of turns in the form of links, soldering of turns.
• Trimming off excess ends, bleaching the product, sanding.

A large number of links are made using the machine. The jeweler uses a magnifying glass to check each one for all kinds of damage, then removes the finished parts from the machine. They are placed under the press, where the edges of the adjacent links are connected.

The whole process is controlled by machines and conveyors. They are used to develop the shape and density of the metal. Automated work allows you to get ready-made chains as a result of production.

The main difference between machine labor is the ability to apply a brand to a product. For a jeweler, even the most experienced, this is too delicate work, and more often than not, custom-made jewelry does not have a stamp.

• A brand must be present on a product of genuine quality. It confirms the presence of precious metal in the composition, it is a guarantee of quality. On Italian weaving, the stamp is placed near the castle, it is noticeable upon close examination and does not strike others in the eye. The only good reason for the lack of a hallmark is custom-made jewelry. In this case, the work is so delicate that it is not possible to apply the stamp manually.

• A massive piece of jewelry with many links, it is easy to fake. Fake chains and bracelets are usually gold plated, made of low grade metal, and sold without product certifications. You can avoid meeting fraudsters if you buy jewelry from brand stores and professional jewelers with an impeccable reputation.

• The decoration is self-sufficient, but if desired, it can be decorated with a pendant or pendant of an attractive design. When purchasing a chain, you need to understand whether it will look with additional elements or it is inappropriate.

• The price of a product mainly depends on its massiveness and weight. It is possible to reduce the weight, and therefore the cost, if you prefer empty links to filled ones. There is an empty cavity inside such a link made of precious metal. Such a change does not affect external signs, but it reduces weight and allows you to save money.

• Women's models are more graceful, delicate. The length can be selected according to the area to be exposed on the body. A deep neckline will adorn a long piece, and a small neckline will look better with a short piece. If you choose a bracelet suitable in color and material for the chain, the image will be harmonious and complete.

• When choosing a silver chain, you need to make sure that the Italian weaving is covered with a layer of rhodium, otherwise the precious metal will react with oxygen and become covered with dark spots.

If your favorite accessory has darkened or acquired a gray coating, this does not mean that it cannot be saved. This is just a natural reaction of the metal to oxygen and contact with the body, which produces sweat.

Professional jewelers carry out professional cleaning of products, but there are several ways to return the chain to its original appearance at home:

• Plaque from gold and silver can be removed by placing the product for 2 minutes in a jar with finely grated potatoes diluted with drinking water and soda (50 grams of soda per 1 liter of water).
• Darkened silver is great for bringing olive oil back to life when applied to a soft flannel flap.
• Steel is easy to clean by soaking it in soapy water and brushing it with a soft brush.
• After the cleaning procedure, the jewelry should be dried with a soft cloth.

The Italian braided chain is an excellent accessory suitable for both men and women. A correctly selected model will not only emphasize the owner's impeccable style, but also give significance to his social status.
