Sterling Silver Carabiner on Chunky Soldered Jump Ring, 5.7-5.9g
Couldn't load pickup availability
Due to demand on the DMs we are making these available. Not our normal stock - but numbers of you saw my silver carabiner that I use as a charm holder and so we are making this item available to order.
Mine sits on a chunky 2mm wide 14mm jump ring which I love as I wear it on my chunky watch chains - but we would suggest a 12mm jump ring is better for having that little amount of wiggle room in the carabiner - mine can get a little stuck. Either way- you can order either - please just understand the limitations of pushing the chunk.
These are new made - nothing vintage about them - and they are completely dependent on the price of silver - so the price will change.
Please be aware - these are custom orders and will take up to 3 weeks to be ready to ship.

FAQ
Sizing
What do we mean when we say a ring is "sizeable"? Well, most standard rings can be made bigger or smaller by up to three letter sizes. If we say the item is "moderately sizeable", this usually means about 1 size, and if we say it is "not sizeable" or that "sizing is not recommended" it will be due to the construction - it could be age related, pattern related, have enamel etc.
We can happily help with sizing of rings, so please do get it touch if we can give you a quote.
Current prices are: $40 for sizing down, $40 for rhodium plating (all white gold rings), and sizing up starts at $50 - and depends on the carat of gold, width of band and number of sizes. These are subject to change at any time and remain linked to the volatile changes in precious metals.
Time frames - sizing is usually complete within 3 weeks.
