Flat Mesh chain is SilverSilk’s most flowy jewelry chain. So, what is Flat Mesh?
SilverSilk Flat Mesh chain is a revolutionary knitted wire jewelry chain. It’s made by knitting wire as thin as human hair into a tubular mesh that is then pressed flat by two rollers. The result is a stunning 5mm knitted wire chain that resembles a metallic ribbon. The 32-gauge, 99.9% copper wire is permanently enameled and is tarnish-resistant for long-lasting jewelry. Plus, the unique elasticity of the knit lends a luxurious free-flowing feel to the jewelry chain.
A custom-made machine with eight tiny latch-hook needles stitches the wire into a perfectly consistent, durable chain that you can cut to any length. And there's no need to worry about fraying or unraveling! SilverSilk Flat Mesh chain joins the strength and beauty of metal with the intricacy of finely woven knit.
