What is it? A classic paperclip chain — elongated, rounded-rectangular links that earned the name by actually looking like paperclips. The paperclip chain exploded in popularity in the early 2020s and has become a modern PJ staple.
Perfect for: Permanent Jewelry or Ready-to-Wear. Easy threader, quick weld, forgiving geometry.
Who it's for: Clients who want modern, minimal, and graphic — jewelry that reads current rather than classic. Also ideal for charm layering: the long links of a paperclip accommodate more charm stations per inch than a standard cable or curb chain.
Bracelet Type: Classic smooth paperclip. Flat-laying, low-tangle, easy-threading.
Stacking Character: Flat + negative space + modern. The long open links define her — airy, graphic, architectural.
Bracelet Stack Balancing: Olivia's abundant negative space loves the company of surface-area chains — Marina, Hunk, Bitty, Hermes 2.4mm. Any of those fill her openness with balanced visual weight. A rolling delicate like Alexia adds softness and profile contrast. For charm work, Olivia is arguably the best charm chain in the catalog — her long links are charm landing pads by design. Clients often come back to add more stations over time; Olivia grows with them.
Why Spark Society chose her: Every Golden Spark Society chain is selected for low break rate. Paperclip chains distribute tension across their long links efficiently — the fewer connection points per inch (compared to fine cable or Singapore) actually gives them a durability advantage at equivalent gauges.
