Description
The Death Chain Byzantine Chain is a 5mm Byzantine necklace: small links interwoven into a dense, sculptural braid. Solid 316L stainless steel core, 18K gold PVD finish. It's the most textured chain in the collection, heavier to the eye than a polished Cuban and richer in pattern than a rope. For the man who wears one chain and means it. It closes with a box clasp, finished in the same gold, and ships in a Death Chain box.

What it’s made of
Interwoven links braided into a dense, sculpted pattern. Every inch is small pieces working together to make a bigger texture.
The core is solid 316L stainless steel, a low-carbon, corrosion-resistant grade. The finish is 18K gold, applied by PVD in a vacuum chamber, not electroplated in a tank.

Care
Rinse it after the gym. Off in the pool. Warm water, mild soap, soft microfiber. Store it in its box, away from your other pieces.
Questions
Is it real gold?
No, it isn't solid gold. The finish is 18K gold, 0.1 micron thick, applied by PVD over a solid 316L stainless steel core: the gold is the finish, the steel is what makes it strong. That's how a 5mm byzantine chain costs $140 instead of thousands.
Will it fade or tarnish?
Gold PVD is a dense, vacuum-deposited finish made for daily wear; rinse it after the gym. Chlorine, salt water with sand, and polishing compounds wear down any finish over time, so take it off for the pool and the beach.
Can I shower or swim in it?
A quick rinse won’t hurt it. Take it off for long showers, hot tubs and pools: soap builds up between the links and chlorine is hard on any finish.
What if the length is wrong?
Send it back within 30 days, unworn and in the box, and we’ll exchange it or refund you. Return shipping is on us.
