What Qualifies as Scrap Gold Chains & Necklaces?
Gold chains and necklaces are often considered scrap gold when they’re damaged, tangled, or no longer wearable. Broken clasps, stretched links, or knots do not reduce the value of the gold itself.
What matters is the gold content and total weight, not the condition or appearance of the piece.
Types of Gold Chains & Necklaces We Buy
Gold Vault evaluates and purchases a wide variety of gold chain and necklace styles, including:
- Broken or tangled gold chains

If it contains gold, there’s a strong chance we can evaluate it.
How Gold Chains & Necklaces Are Valued
Gold chains and necklaces are evaluated using the same clear standards as other gold items:
Gold Purity (Karat)
Common purities include 10k, 14k, and 18k gold. Higher karat gold contains more pure gold and is typically worth more per gram.
Weight
Chains and necklaces are weighed precisely. Because chains often contain more gold by weight, they can hold significant value.
Current Gold Prices
Gold prices fluctuate daily based on global markets. We base all evaluations on current market pricing, ensuring fair and up-to-date offers.
At Gold Vault, we explain each step of the valuation process, so you know exactly how your gold chains or necklaces are assessed.
