Sterling Silver Curb Chains for Men

An ever-popular choice, our Curb Chains are available in varying widths and lengths. Traditionally, Mens Curb Chains were known for their wider and heavier specification and this is still largely the case today for those looking for a single statement chain. However, lighter weights also work extremely well when layered or as a stylish accent worn beneath a shirt. Mens Curb Chains offer an unpretentious and classic design crafted with flat identical links which interlock smoothly. Originally only available with larger links due to the labour-intensive nature of the design, today’s machinery produces exquisite diamond-cut links across all sizes. The curb chain is a style that has been around for many years. Thought to originate from the “gourmette” chain originally, it could date back as far as the late 1700s with European influences. The gourmette is the chain used under the chin to link the horse’s bit, and a curb chain is still sometimes called a gourmette chain even today. Whilst known as a "Grumetta" chain in Italy another possible root for this type of chain is the German term, “panzerkette” which means curb chain, although it is generally thought that the French origin is more likely. A variation on the cable chain, it features links that are twisted and flattened, and then tightly interlocked. Originally the curb chain links were made from a round wire which was cut to the desired size and then twisted by hand to create the distinctive link shape with grooves. Today’s chains are, of course, made to precise specifications by machines to ensure uniformity and overall high standards. Diamond cut Mens Curb Chains provide multiple facets with light refracting properties to enhance the overall look and style. Curb chains are known as timeless classics which lend themselves to all generations and still fit seamlessly into a modern, professional lifestyle and wardrobe. Suitable for both work and play, they are popular for good reason.
