On average, the length of such jewelry starts from 50 cm. In addition, the links of the chains are rather massive and thick. Despite its length, this type of weaving is considered the strongest and most durable. Sometimes the weight of such a gold chain can be up to several tens of grams. Another distinctive feature of this type is that most of the jewelry is made exclusively by hand. The process of their production is laborious, complex and lengthy, therefore the price for such products is much higher.

The general method of making Bismarck weaving chains is quite interesting and unusual. Regardless of the purpose of the chain on the arm or on the neck, thanks to this method, the product will look massive and voluminous. Such products do not require additional accessories - no pendants or pendants. Only officially there are 15 varieties of such weaving.
