Ej456 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Since this is a Cuban cigar website and many members have been to the island. I’d like to ask does anyone have a Cuban link chain from Cuba? Is it more of a Miami Cuban expat thing or do they make them in Cuba? If anyone has pics of theirs I’d love to see. A 6-8 mm chain is always on my list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - and there specialised shops in MIA that "rent" those chains and other gold jewelry to Cubans visiting the island so they can presume to be rich and have "made it" in the US while on visit in Cuba ...

SCgarman Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I would think there is not enough gold in Cuba if any, to make these solid gold link chains. And certainly no average citizen living in utter poverty in Cuba who had the financial resources to afford one. I owned one years ago but decided on no longer wearing gold jewelry such as the chains and bracelets that I owned. Tastes change as you mature with age.

Popular Post El Presidente Posted September 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 5, 2021 Pretty impressive process Jesus, my Greek mates would crawl into a fetal position if you took away their gold chains/bracelets/watches. My leb mates wouldn't leave their room. i have known a few Cubans (in cuba) over the years who flash the gold. They all have external interests in Miami or operate some very dodgy enterprises domestically. generally both. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard stories of families burying their jewels, money, etc before fleeing the Revolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
