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.
Necklace melt depends on chain style; rope and curb links can be much heavier than a fine trace chain.
For a typical weight in the common range, ~5 g of 22K gold might melt around €548.50 at current spot in euros—highly variable by actual weight and condition.
Common variations that change weight
- Length and link style drive chain weight; the same style can vary by size class.
- Clasps and tags may be different fineness or steel—buyers may test or deduct them.
22K is less common than 14K/18K in some EU markets but appears on imported and vintage pieces—verify the stamp.
