Paperclip Link Chain Bracelet
Paperclip-link chains in steel and gold tone, cut to the length you sell — bracelet or short necklace.
Stainless Steel Bracelets · Stainless Steel · MOQ 50 pcs
Four link constructions, one bracelet brief
This is a range, not one bracelet: four link constructions under a single brief, quoted per design. Two alternate a long link with a twisted rope segment, one pairs oval links with rope knots, and one takes a ring and a twist and runs it heavier. Each closes on a lobster clasp with a short extension, and each is 316L stainless steel.
Overview
About this link chain bracelet range
This is a range, not one piece. All four bracelets are built from the same two ideas — a smooth link and a twisted rope segment — arranged differently, so a display can carry one metal story across four price points without four unrelated designs. The first alternates a long paperclip link with a twisted rope section, which gives a stretched, architectural line. The second sets oval links against rope knots, so the chain reads as a series of soft loops rather than a flat run.
The third repeats a ring and a twist at a medium weight, where the round link and the rope sit closer together and the chain looks denser. The fourth takes that same construction and runs it heavier, with wider links, for a piece that sits like a cuff chain rather than a fine bracelet. One of the four is finished in steel tone instead of gold tone, so a stockist can offer the same construction in both metals. Every design is quoted per piece and per design, and lengths are ordered to your market.
- ✓Four designs on one brief, each quoted and packed as its own line
- ✓Paperclip, oval ring and rope knot link types, plus a heavier cut
- ✓Lobster clasp with extension on every design
- ✓One design runs in steel tone, so both metals can be offered

Materials
Materials and plating
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| 316L stainless steel | Every link, rope segment, clasp and jump ring is 316L, so the bracelet does not rust and holds a polish in daily wear. |
| Gold tone | Electroplated gold over steel on the gold designs; plating thickness is not fixed by the design and is quoted per micron. |
| Steel tone | One design is left unplated in polished steel, which is the finish that lasts longest of the four. |
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 |
Best for
Where this piece earns its keep
Bracelet walls
Four weights and link types let one metal story fill a wall at several price points.
Stacking
The lighter designs stack with a watch or a second chain; the heavy cut wears alone.
Two-metal merchandising
The steel-tone design sits beside the gold ones, so one order covers both finishes.

FAQ
Questions about this link chain bracelet range
How many designs are in this listing?
Four: paperclip links with twist, oval links with rope knots, rings with twist, and a heavier cut of that ring-and-twist construction. Each is quoted and packed as its own line.
Is one of them silver-coloured?
Yes, one design is finished in steel tone with no plating, so the same construction can be sold in both metals without a second design.
Are there stones anywhere on these bracelets?
No. All four are all-metal, built from smooth links and twisted rope segments, so there is no stone shade or setting to fix.
How do they close?
A lobster clasp with a short extension chain on every design, which is also where the length adjustment sits. Lengths are ordered to your market.
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.
