Paperclip and star-link chain bracelets, one family
A family of gold-toned chain bracelets where the link does the work: a large paperclip link, the same link edged with cubic zirconia, a run of flat star links, and stone-set chains to layer against them. All are 316L stainless steel, meant to be worn alone or stacked.
Overview
About this paperclip & star chain bracelets
The lead is the paperclip link: an elongated oval that is open at the middle, so the chain reads as a run of rectangles rather than a dense curb. The same link is offered plain and edged with cubic zirconia, and there is a companion run whose link is a flat five-point star, alongside stone-set lines whose links carry round or baguette stones at intervals. The stones are cubic zirconia, which is not a natural stone, so the colour and the size stay even across a run.
Each bracelet is a single piece and is quoted on its own line; the style list is a menu, not a bundle, so a chain wall can be built from one order. Every style closes with a lobster clasp and carries a short extension chain behind it, which makes lengths easier to sell side by side. The stone-set styles can be ordered with clear stones or with coloured stones, so a colourway can be matched to the rest of your range.

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 paperclip & star chain bracelets
What is a paperclip link?
An elongated oval link that is open at the middle, so the chain reads as a run of rectangles. It is a formed metal link, not a stone and not a bead.
Are the stones natural?
No. They are cubic zirconia, not a natural stone, so the colour and the size stay even across a run. Clear and coloured stones can both be ordered.
Do I have to order every style?
No. Each style is quoted as its own line, so you can take one chain or several. Ask us for a quote and we will confirm which styles are in production now.
Are these sold as a stack?
No. Each bracelet is a single piece; the photographs show several styles worn together, and each is quoted separately. The steel bracelet range holds the rest of the family.
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.
