🔗 The perfect accessory for your bags
The LacariaRicami bag chain is the ideal accessory for those who make crochet bags, handmade clutches, and creative leather goods. Available in three materials – aluminum, metal, and plastic – it offers maximum versatility to suit every style and project. Whether you are looking for a lightweight shoulder strap for a summer bag or a sturdy handle for an elegant clutch, you will find the perfect solution among our variants.
Each chain is sold in multiples of 50 cm: when purchasing multiple quantities, you will receive a single continuous piece, perfect for creating shoulder straps of the desired length without interruptions. The flexible format allows you to order exactly what you need, reducing waste and optimizing the budget for your creative projects.
🧬 Materials: which one to choose for your project
Aluminum chains represent the perfect balance between lightness and strength. Thanks to the anodic oxidation treatment, they are hypoallergenic (nickel-free) and retain their shine over time without oxidizing. Ideal for medium-sized bags, they offer a light weight that does not strain the shoulder even after hours of use. Available in gold, silver, and anthracite finishes, they adapt to both classic and modern projects.
Metal chains ensure maximum durability for bags that need to support significant loads. Perfect for shoulder straps on capacious bags or projects that require a solid supporting structure. Plastic chains, on the other hand, are the winning choice for lightweight clutches and decorative bags: available in vibrant colors, they add a touch of originality without weighing down the creation. All variants are compatible with standard lobster clasps and rings, making assembly easy even for beginners.
📏 Sizes and link types
Our chains are available in sizes from 4mm to 13mm in external diameter, measured across the width of the link. The smaller sizes (4-7mm) are perfect for clutches and evening bags, creating delicate and elegant shoulder straps. Medium sizes (8-11mm) are the most versatile choice, suitable for most crochet and handmade bags. Large sizes (12-13mm) give character and presence to statement bags and trendy projects.
Among the available link types, you can find the classic curb (flattened, rounded link), cable (elongated oval link), and diamond-cut (with a faceted finish that reflects light). Each type offers a different aesthetic effect: the curb is the most versatile and modern, the cable gives a more delicate appearance, while the diamond-cut adds shine and movement to the bag.
🛠️ How to attach the chain to your bag
Attaching the chain is simple and does not require special tools. For chains with lobster clasps already attached, simply hook them to the bag's rings – an operation that takes just a few seconds. If you buy the chain by the meter, you can cut it to the desired length with a simple pair of wire cutters and attach the clasps using jewelry pliers. The links are separable, also allowing you to create custom combinations.
For a standard shoulder bag strap, calculate approximately 110-120 cm of total length. For hand-held or wristlet clutches, 40-50 cm is sufficient. Remember that by purchasing multiple quantities, you will always receive a continuous cut: ordering 3 pieces means you will receive 150 cm in one piece, not three separate segments.
✨ Why choose LacariaRicami chains
Unlike generic chains sold online, ours are specifically selected for use on handmade and crochet bags. Each variant is tested to ensure the right balance between weight, strength, and aesthetics. The aluminum chains are all nickel-free, which is essential for those who suffer from allergies or make bags for sale. The variety of colors and sizes allows you to always find the perfect match for your bag's yarn or material.
The 50 cm sales format with continuous cut for multiple quantities is designed to optimize costs without binding you to predefined lengths. You can order exactly what you need for each project, reducing waste and always keeping a stock of the chain size and color you use most frequently. Compatibility with standard clasps makes our chains interchangeable and easy to replace or customize over time.
🎨 What you can create
Bag chains are the most versatile accessory for creating handmade projects. In addition to their classic use as a shoulder strap, you can use them as decorative handles, edging elements, ornamental details to be woven with yarn, or even as decorative closures for flap bags. Creativity knows no limits when you have the right variety of materials and sizes at your disposal.
👩🎨 Who it is suitable for
Bag chains are suitable for both beginners in handmade bag creation and expert artisans. Application is simple and intuitive: even without prior experience, with basic clasps and pliers, you can assemble your first shoulder strap in minutes. For those who make crochet bags as a hobby, the chains represent the final touch that transforms a handmade item into a professional, wearable accessory.
Our chains are also highly appreciated by those who sell handmade bags online or at markets: the nickel-free quality and variety of finishes allow you to offer customers safe and customizable products. Artisans, creative hobbyists, crochet and ribbon enthusiasts, and even those looking for a replacement for an existing bag: everyone finds the right solution for their project in our chains.

📌 Important note
Chains are sold in 50 cm multiples. If you purchase multiple quantities (e.g., 3 pieces), you will receive a continuous 150 cm length, not three separate pieces.

Aluminum chains are nickel-free and hypoallergenic. Always check the compatibility of the link size with the carabiners you intend to use.
