Oval Snake Chain Necklace in 14K Yellow Gold | 2.60mm: metal 14K yellow gold, chain style Snake, oval, width 2.60 mm, approx. weight 4.9 g at 16 in · 5.3 g at 18 in · 5.8 g at 20 in, lengths 16, 18 and 20 inches. From $1,671.00 CAD. Free insured delivery in 5–7 business days, no duties in Canada or the US, 30-day returns and a lifetime warranty.
A snake chain is made of closely fitted rings that form a smooth, flexible tube, so it reads less like a chain than a single fine line of gold. This one is oval in section and 2.60mm wide in 14K yellow gold, with a smooth, rounded surface that lies softly along the collarbone.
Three lengths are offered: 4.9 g at 16 inches, 5.3 g at 18 and 5.8 g at 20. It is light enough to wear all day, and its flexible build lets it follow the neck rather than stand away from it.
Sixteen inches sits close, at the base of the neck; eighteen rests on the collarbone; twenty falls a little lower. Its smooth surface shows best against bare skin or a plain, dark top, worn alone as one clean line.
It closes with a lobster clasp. A snake chain should be laid flat or hung when it is off, never knotted or folded sharply, since a hard bend can kink it. Every length is covered by the DEEVE lifetime warranty.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Are DEEVE gold chains solid gold or plated?
Solid 14K or 18K gold through every link — never gold-plated, gold-filled, or vermeil. The gold goes all the way through, and white gold's rhodium finish is renewed free under the lifetime warranty, so a DEEVE chain can be worn daily, polished, and repaired for decades.
What is the difference between Cuban, Figaro, Franco, and Mariner chains?
The difference is link architecture. Cuban links are flat, interlocking ovals that form a continuous line; Figaro alternates long and short links for rhythm; Franco weaves a tight V-pattern with a rounded, rope-like profile; Mariner links carry a bar across each oval. At equal width and solid construction, none outranks the others in durability — the choice is visual.
What chain width should I choose?
Narrower gauges read refined and pair well with pendants; mid widths around 4–5 mm hold their own worn alone; wider gauges make the chain the statement. Most DEEVE chains are unisex — width and length, not gender, decide how the piece reads.
What length should a gold chain be?
An 18–20 inch chain sits at the collarbone and is the most versatile length; 22–24 inches falls mid-chest for a longer line; choker lengths sit close to the neck. DEEVE's Jewelry Size Chart Guide includes a full length reference.
Do solid gold chains tarnish?
Solid 14K gold does not tarnish under normal wear. Minor dulling from skin oils is fully reversible with warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth — and because the gold runs all the way through, wear never reaches a different metal; white gold's rhodium finish is renewed free under the lifetime warranty.
Can a gold chain be repaired or adjusted?
Yes. Repairs and length adjustments are handled by DEEVE's in-house Ontario workshop, and every chain is covered by the lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
How quickly do DEEVE gold chains ship?
Every chain ships free worldwide with insured express delivery — arriving in 5–7 business days.
