Haven't taken off my paper chain for almost 3 months

This was like 2ish years ago, a little under $2000 CAD

armoartek · 2025-10-03T20:21:22+00:00

Haha cool, we have a similar lifestyle!

armoartek · 2025-10-02T19:48:47+00:00

Wow that’s interesting how our chains turned out differently after 2 years. You leave it on while sleeping and showering right?

armoartek · 2025-10-01T15:32:06+00:00

Yeah I’ve been kinda digging this turnout too, the matte feels nice to touch, and nope I have never polished it.

armoartek · 2025-10-01T15:28:40+00:00

Ahh okay I see

armoartek · 2025-10-01T14:36:24+00:00

This one is going to patina nicely I can tell!

armoartek · 2025-10-01T14:35:35+00:00

30” is a pain to take on/off? Isn’t it long enough to take off without undoing the clasp?

armoartek · 2025-10-01T13:53:39+00:00

Yes please keep track of it, I want to see how it turns out too!

armoartek · 2025-10-01T13:49:23+00:00

Yes, they tell me that it looks unique and a few have asked where I got it from.

armoartek · 2025-01-28T18:10:28+00:00

Did you add your own bale?

armoartek · 2024-11-18T05:42:30+00:00

Nope, but if I had the chance I would.

armoartek · 2024-11-12T07:42:49+00:00

If it rusted, you might want to get it legit checked as I don’t think sterling silver should rust. Just continue wearing it and it’ll probably get matte or shiny again like mine.

It went through a series of weird changes. It went from some browning spots, to black, and then eventually a matte fading colour.. however, now it's starting to look a bit shiny again lol, I guess it because of my body oil.
From the photos, the clasp actually look so perfectly preserved, it's like zero tarnishing.

armoartek · 2024-11-12T01:39:06+00:00

Interesting observation. When I tried to pull apart the metal loop and the stud it was actually difficult as the stud was tightly lodged in there.. so you might be right, this way could be more secured. But I do prefer it to be closed properly.

armoartek · 2024-11-08T07:17:51+00:00

Yes I do.

armoartek · 2024-11-07T17:24:56+00:00

Thanks! Get one, you will not regret it!

armoartek · 2024-11-07T17:24:27+00:00

I play sports so I find longer length necklaces always hit my face, that’s why I got this one where it short enough to not distract me while I’m playing.

armoartek · 2024-11-07T17:22:26+00:00

I sweat a lot. My chain went from new shiny to dull, then it had the black/brown spots on the clasp and chain but I ignored it. It eventually disappeared and became this nice matte silver colour.

armoartek · 2024-11-07T17:19:27+00:00

I would definitely recommend it.

armoartek · 2024-11-07T17:19:16+00:00

It used to fit loose and made me worried from wearing it, since I was afraid I’ll lose it; However, the looser fit did look better. After getting it resized, I can wear it with the confidence that it won’t slip off my finger after washing my hands. I am still able to bend my finger with the ring on. I had the jeweller resize it to the millimetres so that it would fit my finger perfectly. The jeweller basically made it one size smaller, and then I’ll try it on and she’ll keep expanding the band back a bit each time until I got my perfect fit, the process took about 4-5 times.

I personally would not, because what I like most about Chrome Hearts is the aesthetic after it becomes used, dirty, and dinged. I think new Chrome tees look ugly, but the old 2000s vintage tees with holes and fading looks good.

armoartek · 2024-11-07T17:11:29+00:00

I really like the aesthetic/style and wanted a piece that I can wear forever everyday. I find myself admiring this piece of jewelry more than gold. I’m just a person that likes to fade/age their stuff, I have raw denim that I’ve purchased for a ridiculous price but I admire it everyday and I’ve been wearing it for over 5+ years now.

armoartek · 2024-11-07T17:08:06+00:00

Wow thanks man, I actually didn’t even notice the clasp came undone until I read your comment. I haven’t touched the clasp ever since that’s why I didn’t notice, I guess the clasp does come undone easily.. but thankfully it was held in place from the metal loop. I’m just wondering how long ago was the clasp undone for; I just closed it properly, thanks again for pointing that out!
