A 20.5" Fancy Combination Chain in 9ct Gold
A 20.5" Fancy Combination Chain in 9ct Gold
A wonderful 20.5” fancy link chain made from the combination of two antique chains which together form a delightful, longer chain that can be worn on its own or as part of a neckstack. A pendant or charms could be hung from the dog clip or bolt ring. The two chains could also be worn as extenders to other chains or as bracelets.
The two chains together measure 20.5”/52cm and weigh 10.3g.
Details of the individual chains are as follows:
The first chain is a 13.5” paperclip or long link antique chain in 9ct white and yellow gold with a dog clip and a bolt ring clasp. The paperclip and knot link sections alternate between white and yellow gold.
This chain could be worn doubled up as a bracelet or with another chain to make a longer chain.
The chain is crafted in 9ct white and yellow gold. It measures 36cm/13.5/34cm long including clasps and weighs 5.5g. The chain dates from 1920’s.
The paperclip link measures approximately 13mm x 2mm 1mm and the lover’s knot sections measure 11mm x 2mmx 2mm. Both the yellow and the white links of the chain have XRF tested as 9ct gold. One of the end rings has a faded stamp for 9ct gold. The dog clip measures approximately 19mm from end to end and is stamped ‘9C’ for 9ct gold. The bolt ring measures 8mm across.
The second chain is a 7”/18cm fancy link chain. It weighs 4.8g and is crafted in 9ct yellow gold. It has a lovely ball and fancy oval link design - perfect to add interest and texture to your chain game. The links measure 4mm x 3mm x 3mm. A few of the links are missing their small balls - this is not at all obvious when the chain is being worn and does not detract from its overall beauty. Please see the photographs for more details.
This chain has a round gold link on either end enabling it to be clipped onto the clasps of the other chain. It has previously been worn as a bracelet with a heart padlock clasp. If you would like to add a heart padlock to your purchase, so you can wear it in the same way, just send us a message.
This is an antique chain and as such shows some signs of wear as one would expect. Please look at the photographs as they form part of the description.
