FAQs

A guard chain is a long Victorian-era necklace originally designed to secure items such as pocket watches, lorgnettes, or eyeglasses, often worn doubled or tripled around the neck.

These chains were traditionally crafted from sterling silver, gold, or pinchbeck, frequently featuring hollow stamped links, faceted beads, and secure swivel clasp mechanisms.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period-appropriate hallmarks or stamps, subtle signs of hand-craftsmanship, and natural age-related patina on the silver links.

This versatile piece can be worn layered in multiple strands, doubled for a shorter look, or fitted with a pendant to serve as a statement accessory.

Silver jewellery should be gently cleaned with a specialised microfibre cloth and stored in an anti-tarnish pouch away from direct moisture and harsh chemicals.
