For some, the best gold chain may be a Miami Cuban link, a type of solid gold chain that is quite popular in the rap and hip-hop communities around the world. However, Miami Cuban links may not always be the best option for daily wear, as they can be quite heavy. This is precisely why the Monaco Chain™ has emerged as one of the best chains in recent years. Although they look similar in appearance to the Cuban link, Monaco Chain™’s designs are a more modern and innovative take on the original. Thanks to their patented technology, Monaco Chain™ is able to create hollow gold chains that are up to 75% lighter than the Miami Cuban link chain. Although hollow, Monaco Chain™ pieces are still durable gold chains, which can hold up to 52 lbs on a tensile test—very close to the performance of a solid chain. As these chains are lighter, they are also much more budget-friendly.
