Jewellery Care Guide

Sterling Silver: Gently polish with a soft jewellery cloth to maintain shine. Silver Care Guide →

Solid Gold (9ct, 14ct, 18ct): Solid gold will not tarnish or peel, but it can gather oils and dust. Soak in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, then gently scrub with a soft toothbrush to restore its brilliance.

18ct Gold Plate: Avoid water, perfumes, and lotions to preserve the gold layer. Gold Plate Care Guide →

Bronze: Over time, bronze develops a unique vintage patina. Polish to restore brightness or leave to age naturally. Bronze Care Guide →

Gemstones: Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners.

Chain 🖤 Links and repetition — everyday forms, reworked by hand

Handcrafted to order in Mt Eden, Auckland, the Line Chain Necklace is a mid-weight contemporary piece available in two distinct finishes: a unique mixed-metal Caramel Bronze featuring hand-textured bronze links with sterling silver connections, or a classic solid Sterling Silver. Named for the way it sits against the skin — a continuous line of light around the neck — this unisex artisan chain comes in a standard length of 45 cm, with custom lengths seamlessly accommodated on request.

  • Finish: Individually hand-textured links for an organic, light-shifting surface
  • Clasp: Custom-designed signature sterling silver catch — secure, functional, and considered

  • Sizing & Style: Mid-weight, unisex design; engineered to wear solo or layered comfortably

Choose Your Finish

Sterling Silver — NZD $895
Bright, polished, and classic. Sterling silver develops a gentle patina over time and polishes back to a high shine with a soft cloth.

Caramel Bronze — NZD $750
Warm, sculptural, and distinctive. Silicon bronze carries a rich caramel tone that deepens and evolves with wear — no two pieces age the same way.

Style & Inspiration

The Line Chain is designed for those who want simplicity with substance — a piece that looks easy but feels deeply intentional. Whether chosen in silver or bronze, its clean lines meet a fluid, tactile strength, making it a foundation piece that effortlessly earns its place in your daily wardrobe.

Each finish offers a completely distinct character:

  • The Caramel Bronze option embraces a striking, intentional mix of metals. The warm, lived-in depth of the bronze links is beautifully highlighted by the bright clarity of sterling silver jump rings and the matching custom catch. Over time, the bronze will develop a rich, personal dark patina that heightens this artistic contrast.
  • The Sterling Silver option delivers a crisp, radiant minimalist classicism. At 45 cm, it sits just below the collarbone, offering a bright line of light that finishes an outfit without overthinking it.

Designed with a thoughtful mid-weight profile, both variations have enough physical presence to sit perfectly against the body while remaining light enough for effortless all-day wear.

Versatility & Styling

Wear it alone as a striking focal point, or use its simple link structure to anchor your own treasures. It is engineered to perfectly accommodate pendants from our collection, like a pohutukawa leaf or an organic sculptural gemstone pendant. If you have a specific stone or a unique vision in mind, you can get in touch about a bespoke commission.

Part of the Line Chain family — a design that runs through the collection as a shared language rather than a matching set. This necklace pairs naturally with the Line Chain Bracelet and Line Chain Pounamu Earrings; each piece stands alone, but together they create a sense of continuity.
