Men's platinum chain

Not everyone knows that initially wearing jewelry was an exclusively male privilege. Thousands of years ago, men hung themselves with massive chains with amulets, trying to demonstrate with their help their status, strength and position in society.

Today, a man’s platinum chain, like thousands of years ago, is a demonstration of its viability and success. Only a poor man can afford to buy a platinum chain - this is a very expensive metal. Its high cost is justified by the rarity (the production of platinum is several times lower than gold). In addition, this material is very durable, so it is difficult to handle. All this makes it attractive for a man who wants to emphasize his originality and individuality.

There are several proven and simple methods by which you can understand the real platinum in front of you or some other metal.

1. Platinum is a very strong metal, therefore, it is heavier than silver and gold. Two chains of the same length will have a different weight. This can be checked on pharmacy scales.
2. In contact with hydrogen sulfide and nitric acid, silver will react and change its color, while platinum will remain unchanged.
3. Different metals have different thermal conductivities. Hold two silverware and platinum in your hands. That which will heat up longer is platinum.

1. The platinum chain is very tough to break - platinum strength has already been mentioned.
2. The chain of this noble metal is universal and fits both a business suit and a more democratic style. Such decorations can be observed in representatives of show business and a serious business elite.
3. Due to the very decent cost of such a product, people can afford very successful, so the decoration will speak for itself.
4. Platinum is a pure metal with no impurities, therefore, does not cause allergies. Therefore, the chain of this metal does not cause irritation and is completely safe for health.

Platinum chain looks great as an independent decoration. But also it can be carried complete with a pendant from the same material. Or you can choose a decoration of silver or white gold - platinum goes well with them. Depending on whether it is a separate decoration or as a supplement to the suspension, different requirements are imposed on the chains.

1. Chain for suspension. If it is assumed that the chain will be worn with a pendant, it should be massive and exceed the weight of the suspension itself at least several times. Men usually wear suspensions with meaning, often as an amulet. For these purposes, it is better to choose products with anchor weaving. Cord varieties look good, as well as a figaro and all variants of rope clutches and weaving type braids.
2. Chain as an independent decoration. Without accessories you can wear absolutely any chain. However, various types of weaves attract additional attention to the decoration, making it a source of pride for its owner.If you do not plan to decorate the platinum chain with any additional accessories, rightly believing that it is beautiful in itself, pay attention to the cobra, bismarck, and Byzantine weaves. In addition, from several ordinary chains, you can easily create a trendy modern decoration, combining chains of different sizes and colors. Layering and a lot of texture is now at the peak of popularity.

An unequivocal answer to the question of how long the chain should decorate a man does not exist. It depends on many factors: on the style of clothes, on the constitution of the body, on the lifestyle and much more. However, there are several basic canons that should be followed when choosing a men's jewelry made of platinum.

1. Length 40 cm. Jewelry of such length can be safely chosen for slender, lean men, as well as young people.
2. Length 45 cm. Such a chain is suitable for people of medium build. She can be worn by a young guy and a middle-aged man.
3. Length 50 cm. This length is considered to be universal and suitable for all sizes and complexions. However, for people who are too thin, such a chain may not be suitable, especially if it is a very massive weave, with large links.
4. Length 55 cm and more. Such a decoration is more appropriate for obese men, weightlifters, boxers or just owners of a wide muscular neck.

Male platinum chains are traditionally made of large sizes, with large links. Their design is classic, clear and simple. The expression “low-key luxury” could not be more appropriate for chains and other jewelry made of platinum. The unspoken rule for men: with clothes in a strict business style, it is not customary to openly display wearable jewelry, be it just a chain or a chain with a pendant, even in the form of a cross. Wearing a chain over clothing is allowed in a more democratic style.
