Cuban Link Necklace Silver-Tone

Silver Cuban link necklaces: plain or with stones

A silver-tone Cuban necklace can be a clean band of polished steel, or it can carry cubic zirconia stones on the clasp or on every link. This page helps you choose between the plain look and the iced look. All our Cuban necklaces are stainless steel or titanium steel; silver is the color, not the metal.

Three levels of shine

Plain: the everyday Cuban

Polished links reflect light in one clean line. A plain Cuban works with a T-shirt, a knit, an open shirt. It never looks overdressed. The Cuban link chain necklace is the easy start, and the bold 10 mm Cuban the heavier one.

Stones: the evening Cuban

The Cuban chain with pave clasp is set with cubic zirconia on the links and the clasp in its silver-tone version (on the gold-tone version, only the clasp is). The Cuban chain with cubic zirconia has rows of brilliant-cut stones on each link: it sits flat and heavy and is worn on its own. These are pieces for going out, or for a man whose style is already bold.

The stones are cubic zirconia, a lab-made stone, set in steel. They give a strong, even sparkle and ask for nothing more than a rinse.

Length for a Cuban necklace

A Cuban is usually worn without a pendant, so it can sit higher than a pendant chain. 20" lands at the collarbone on most men, 22" just below it. Above 10 mm, stay at 20" to 24": a very long heavy chain swings. For a deeper guide to widths and lengths, see our men's Cuban link chains page.

Care

Plain steel goes in the shower, the sea and the pool; rinse it after salt or chlorine. On stone-set models, a soft brush and clean water keep the stones bright; dry well.
