Details
Dating to the early 1900s, this classic 15-inch antique Edwardian Albert chain features robust “trombone” links forged from warm yellow rolled gold and proudly stamped “HERCULES”, a prestigious mark used by British manufacturers to signify the strength and durability of the chain.
This piece would have once adorned the waistcoat of a well-dressed Edwardian gentleman and retains its original double dog clips and a substantial bolt ring suspended at the end that would have traditionally been used to hold his pocket watch or a decorative fob.
This versatile piece is the perfect acquisition for collectors seeking a bold antique watch chain, yet it also translates beautifully into a fashionable statement necklace that can be layered and personalised with a favourite pendant or cherished antique charm.
