For UK buyers, a good 9ct chain comparison starts with a recognised hallmark where legally required, then gram weight, dimensions, solid or hollow construction, clasp and seller terms.
What 9ct means
9ct gold corresponds to 375 fineness: 37.5% gold by mass in the alloy. That does not tell you the chain style, weight or whether the links are hollow.
Five checks before buying
- Confirm the metal description and hallmark where applicable.
- Compare gram weight, not width alone.
- Check whether construction is solid or hollow.
- Check length, width and clasp dimensions.
- Read returns, seller identity and condition details.
