Elkka,

    As I directed our compatriot last yesterday, try Herco in San
    Francisco. Huge selection of 14 and 18K in white and yellow, and even
    some pink. They are my first choice in chain! If they don't have it,
    chances are you won't find it. Their web address is: 

    www.hercojwl.com, and as I stated in my previous response, they
    require industry affiliation to establish an account. They are,
    perhaps, a little more expensive (a very few percent) than other
    suppliers, but I have never had a chain come back to me in 15+ years
    for a defect. And if you establish yourself with them, they'll even
    memo chain to you for your inspection/selection. And, no, I don't get
    paid to speak this highly of them!
