What Are Foxtail Chains?
Foxtail chains are a distinctive jewelry style named for their resemblance to the layered hairs of a fox’s tail. Composed of v-shaped links facing each other in a tight, symmetrical weave, these chains offer a dense, textured look with exceptional fluidity.
Design Highlights:
- Links are woven at a 45-degree angle for durability
- Round or flat profiles available

- Smooth to the touch and visually luxurious
This intricate design not only looks elegant but also offers long-term wearability and comfort.
