Figaro Chain Necklace
Figaro Chain Necklace

The truth is lost to time, but it is popular belief that the name comes from Mozart's 1786 opera The Tale of Figaro. Both in name and in presence this chain embodies the embellished and theatrical nature of Baroque Opera, balanced with the delicacy of an everyday piece.
These chains are fully soldered, complete with end caps and lobster clasp.

I’ve been wearing exclusively layered Figaro chains for the past few years now and I ALWAYS get compliments on them and they work with both my teeny tiny gold pendants and my chunkier styles. The gold fill hasn’t tarnished at all despite summers in Vermont and the fact that I don’t remove my jewelry to shower or swim in fresh water. Love love love these timeless chains :-)
