Vintage 1980’s 17” Mixed Metal Gold Tone Open Miami Cuban Link Chain Necklace

Miami Cuban link chain. Cuban link necklaces are known for its thick, flat, and closely interlocking links. It is often associated with luxury and hip-hop culture. Miami Cuban links have a distinct oval shape with tighter spaces between them and sharp angular designs, creating a flatter silhouette than other chain styles like Figaros. While the standard Cuban link has uniform oval links, the Miami Cuban link is a tighter and denser variation with slightly more rounded links, considered the most iconic style. The style originated in the Cuban communities of Miami, Florida, and rose to prominence in the 1970s and 1980s, gaining recognition within the city's Latin and hip-hop communities. The chains gained widespread recognition as rappers, athletes, and other celebrities adopted them as a status symbol, with interest significantly increasing in 2012 and continuing to grow since then.
