Byzantine Chain
Byzantine Chains: Intricate, Bold & Regal
Step into a world of intricate artistry and historical grandeur with the Byzantine chain. Originating in the powerful Byzantine Empire (flourishing 4th-15th century), a successor to the Roman Empire established by Emperor Constantine, this chain design reflects a rich cultural tapestry where Roman tradition met emerging Christian motifs. Initially worn as a prominent symbol of wealth and high status within the Empire, the Byzantine chain is renowned for its complex beauty and substantial presence.
The distinctive design features round and oval links intricately woven and joined together, often in pairs. This meticulous interlocking creates a pattern that is remarkably dense, flexible, and possesses a luxurious, weighty feel often compared to fine rope or ancient chainmail. It’s a testament to the sophisticated craftsmanship of the era.
While rooted in ancient history, the Byzantine chain experienced a significant resurgence in popularity during the 20th century, finding favor among those who appreciate bold, statement jewelry, including prominent rappers and musicians drawn to its unique texture and undeniable presence.
At GOLDZENN, we honor this imperial legacy by offering masterfully crafted Byzantine chains. Indulge in the classic and opulent look of a gold Byzantine chain, meticulously constructed to showcase the intricate weave and luxurious weight that defines this style. Each chain is a wearable piece of history, embodying strength, complexity, and enduring design.
Explore the GOLDZENN collection and discover the captivating allure of the Byzantine chain – a masterpiece of linkage perfected centuries ago.

Moissanite Cuban Link Chain - 12mm-15mm in 925 Sterling Silver
It’s smaller than I expected but that’s my fault I wear 18 inch tennis and I thought 16 would be good to be just a little shorter to have a good layered stacked look other than that the craftsmanship is great the stones are some of the best I’ve seen and I’ve purchased from alot of jewelers
