The name of this Italian gold chain, Figaro, implies music. And the design of this 20-inch necklace--three small square links alternating with one large oval link--certainly dances in the light, as if to a song. Cuts on the top, bottom, and corners of the links create endless angles that reflect light and give the chain its concave shape. The solid 14k gold ensures the necklace’s strength and durability: pure gold is too malleable for jewelry and so is mixed with alloys of silver, copper, and zinc. The clasp is a lobster claw, which is easy to maneuver but also secure.
