Is it possible to strech a 9" (5mm wide, 2mm thick), 14k curb bracelet (not

but that it still remains wearable i.e. strong enough?


You're kidding, right?!?

You can't be serious.

Why don't you try it. *See what happens.

LOL,

I honestly have no idea if that would work or not, but I'm going to
uh, "go out on a limb here"... and say that Abrasha does NOT think it
will work !' Heh, heh...
Just curious but if you had the time (say a year or three) could it
physically be done ? Could one actually 'stretch' 14K that way even
if you did it piece by piece ? With the length needed, wouldn't that
chain become like 28 Gauge wire or something.... ?
