How Much Is a 14K Gold Necklace Worth?

Estimates use the same USD spot basis as our calculators. Not financial advice, not a purchase offer, and not a guarantee of what any buyer will pay.

Necklace weight varies significantly by style. A delicate chain may be 3–5g; a thick rope chain can exceed 20g. Weigh the chain separately from any pendant.

Necklaces vary wildly by chain style—rope and Cuban links can be much heavier than a fine box chain of the same length.

For a typical weight in the common range, ~5 g of 14K gold might melt around $436.10 at current spot—highly variable by actual weight and condition.
