This is a very unique chain because it's made of many chains with different materials. It's very pretty. I purchased it as a belly chain and see only now that it says belt.  That makes a lot more sense. It looks nice; it's classy.  It has a little weight to it but no sharp edges that make catch your clothing and snag it. I haven't actually worn it as a belt once but threw it on with a swimsuit (that's why I thought it was bulky; for a belly chain...)
