I believe that many buyers see many different styles of Cuban chains on the Internet, some with diamonds, some without diamonds, some are expensive, and some are cheap. What materials are they made of?
Different material for cuban link chain
Because of the different aesthetics, different people have different requirements for the Cuban chain. Some people like the thicker ones, some people like the finer ones, some people like the high-end ones, and some people like the cheap ones, and the Cuban chain manufacturers cater to them. Different customers have developed different styles, and some have adopted different materials.
Cuban chain is the most representative of hip-hop jewelry, and it is also the hip-hop jewelry with the most orders from foreign customers. At present, the most mainstream material is copper, inlaid with zircon. There are also more high-end ones, using 925 silver, also inlaid with zircon, but because the price is too expensive (more than 500 dollars to more than 2,000 dollars), fewer people wear them.
A Cuban chain made of copper inlaid with zircon costs tens to hundreds of dollars, so although many people like it, it is still too expensive. Therefore, a Cuban chain made of alloy material and glued with rhinestones was born. The price is only More than 10 dollars, and some even only a few dollars.
There is also a stainless steel Cuban chain. Although it does not have diamonds, it has a very good color retention effect and is favored by many Cuban chain lovers. Of course, the stainless steel Cuban chain also has sticky diamonds, but the production process is too complicated, so the cost is relatively high.
The same Cuban chain, why the alloy material is half cheaper than copper?
The Cuban chain is the most representative of hip-hop jewelry, and it is also a jewelry that foreigners like to wear. Because the production process is very complicated, a Cuban necklace has about 2,000 diamonds, so the price of the Cuban chain is relatively high. The price of a copper material It is between 30 and 40 US dollars.
The production process of the alloy material is different from that of the copper material. The copper Cuban chain is inlaid with zircon on the wax table. When the embryo is found out, the zircon is already fixed on the embryo. After electroplating, the zircon is relatively reliable and not easy. Lose. The Cuban chain made of alloy material is inverted from the mold. After electroplating, the rhinestones are glued on, so the fastness is not very good, and the texture is far inferior to that of copper.
The Cuban chain made of copper costs more than $30, while the Cuban chain made of alloy material is only sold for more than $10. Although the price difference between the two is relatively large, the profit from production is the same for the factory.
