Snake chains

Q: Why is it called a snake chain?

The snake chain, with its intricate construction of delicately curved plates interwoven with slender links, forms a flexible tubular silhouette. Its name is inspired by its refined, scale-like texture, reminiscent of snakeskin. Often known in some circles as the 'Brazilian chain', this chain offers remarkable flexibility and is available in an array of lengths, as well as snake chain bracelets, to suit every individual's taste.
