CLOTH OR PLASTIC
ELECTRICAL CABLE GENERALLY WEAVES
IN & OUT OF EVERY 2nd or 4th LINK OF CHAIN

We recommended that you order a little more electrical cable than the length of chain you have calculated on. This gives your electrician that little bit of extra cable often needed for ceiling and lampholder connections and will also allow for some important slack as the cable weaves in and out of every second or fourth link, avoiding the unattractive 'bunching-up' of the chain due to an insufficient length of cable. For the most aesthetic outcome we would recommend an extra 500mm (1/2metre) of electrical cable than the length of chain.

Our chains are made of steel and plated in either brass, florentine bronze or chrome. Unlacquered matte black is also available.
Additionally, there is a selection of refurbished vintage matte-black lengths of chain available in smaller quantities (scroll down towards the end of this page).

We also have a selection of steel chains that are rusty, old and time-worn. Scroll towards bottom of this page.
