Layered snake chain necklace, gold tone
A flat snake chain that sits close to the skin, broken once by a single bezel-set cubic zirconia. Several stone shapes are made, and the flat strand layers cleanly against finer chains. Made in 316L stainless steel.
Overview
About this layered snake chain necklace
This is a flat snake chain: the links are formed as narrow, angled plates that sit edge to edge, so the run lies flush on the collarbone instead of twisting or standing away. A single cubic zirconia is set in a bezel at one point on the chain, either flush along the run or riding just below it as a small drop. Because the stone is the only break in the line, the piece reads as one clean strand with one accent, which is what makes it layer well.
It is built to be worn in a stack, and the supplier runs it as a small family rather than one shape: a marquise, a leaf, a pear, a pear set inside a pave halo, a round and a teardrop drop, among others. Each style is quoted on its own, so you choose the stones your market buys. Both the chain and the setting are 316L stainless steel, and the cubic zirconia is a man-made stone rather than a natural one, so colour and size stay even across a run and the price is predictable.

316L
The grade, in plain terms
Every design on this page is made in 316L stainless steel — the molybdenum-bearing austenitic grade, and the same grade specified for surgical implants and marine fittings. The “L” is low carbon, which is what keeps chain links and hollow forms sound at the joins.
Grades are worth stating rather than implying, because 316L, 304 and 201 look identical in a photograph and differ by real money per tonne. We name the grade on every design. If your market needs documentation with the goods, tell us and we will confirm what is available on this design before you order.
| Property | 316L stainless steel |
|---|---|
| Designation | 316L (AISI/ASTM) · SUS316L under JIS · 1.4404 under EN |
| Composition | Chromium 16–18%, nickel 10–14%, molybdenum 2–3%, carbon 0.03% max |
| Why 316L and not 304 or 201 | Molybdenum is what resists chlorides, and neither of the cheaper grades contains any |
| Tarnish and rust | Does not tarnish, and does not rust from everyday wear, sweat or water |
| Skin | Hypoallergenic for most wearers, and not nickel-free — it contains 10–14% nickel by specification |
| Specified for | Surgical implants (ASTM F138) and marine fittings, which is where the “surgical” and “marine grade” labels come from |

FAQ
Questions about this layered snake chain necklace
Is this one necklace or a set?
It is one snake chain necklace with a single bezel stone. Some images show two or three worn together to show how the flat chain layers; a set is simply more than one length, and each length is quoted as its own line.
Is the stone a natural stone?
No. It is cubic zirconia, a man-made stone, so colour and size stay even across a run and the cost is predictable.
Will the flat chain twist or flip?
The links are formed as flat plates joined so the run lies flat against the skin. Worn at the length you order, the chain sits flush rather than twisting.
Can I choose the stone shape?
Yes. The family runs a marquise, a leaf, a pear, a pear inside a halo, a round and a teardrop drop, among others. Ask us for a quote on the shapes you want and we will confirm which are in production now.
Are you a manufacturer or a trading company?
We are a China-based B2B fashion jewellery supplier with our own design, sourcing and quality-control team, and we do not own a factory. The benches your order runs on belong to partner production lines in Guangdong that we work with directly and visit during your production. We publish no factory address, floor area, headcount or founding year, because those numbers describe a plant rather than the service you are buying. Ask any supplier this question, and check whether the answer matches the paperwork you get.
