ABOUT:
Unique link French antique watch chain with an extra large spring ring on one end and a dog clip on the other - those two components alone are quite valuable in the parts and findings category. These are set on a buttery and glowing 18k chain that has longer and skinny looped links. It makes a wonderful necklace chain or pendant holder for your neckmess / neckstack and is interesting to layer as well. It measures a little over 19.5 inches in length.
French hallmarks for 18k on the spring ring and dog clip.
Antique boxes / items in displays and group shots in photos are not included, listing is for the one piece. Please note the measurements as I have small hands and it can be difficult to decipher scale from photos.
MEASUREMENTS:
It weighs 6.3g. Stretched end to end it's a little over 19.5 inches. The XL spring ring is 15mm.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
I think the spring ring may be an add on, the patina has a slightly rosy hue compared to the yellow gold dog clip. A subtle difference. A couple very shallow ripples to the spring ring but everything functions. Each long link is about 6mm.
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. Beautiful rich patina that has warmed the 18k gold - it has a beautiful glow. Some signs of it being worn from age, where there is a very slight / gradual curve, or a ripple here or there but still very stable. Some surface wear but this is only seen if you study it up close due to the mirrored finish. To the eye and while wearing it as an amazing color and shine, like I said it truly glows and the 18 plus grams of solid 18k gold make it a special piece indeed. Sturdy, wearable and interesting piece in the solid gold version. There are no dark or colored spots to the gold, it was just difficult to photograph because it is so shiny and mirrored that it reflects its surroundings. Impactful worn alone but also layers well with other pieces.
My disclaimer with all my pieces - Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition.
I would be delighted if you'd follow me in my shop. Thanks for stopping by!
