Antique French Silver Watch Chain, Vintage French Silver Filigree Necklace

Antique French Silver Watch Chain, Vintage French Silver Filigree Necklace

This Victorian Era beauty was almost certainly cut down from a longer long guard chain and is composed of 800-900 silver. Hallmarked along the silver links and clasps with a crab and boar's head, the clasps were added later and assayed in Paris while the chain links were assayed in a department. Despite the chain's age the links are in excellent condition and very strong. The alignment of the dog clip clasp is slightly off but despite this it closes well and holds securely. The length of the chain is very versatile as it is long enough to fit most necks but is short enough to work as a doubled bracelet. The filigree on these pieces is always so beautifully detailed and includes texturing. A beautiful patina remains to show the authenticity of the chain. A versatile and well-crafted piece in excellent condition.
