A fancy antique Victorian Albert chain featuring a fabulous swivel fob pendant suspended from the bottom that can be rotated. It�s set with a deep-orange carnelian on one side and a speckled green bloodstone on the reverse, both unengraved. Albert chains were named after Prince Albert, Queen Victoria�s consort and were traditionally worn by gentlemen to secure a pocket watch or fob to a waistcoat. The fobs weren�t only a stylish accessory but could be used to stamp a signature image or initials into sealing wax on important documents. The fob is fashioned in a rosy 9ct gold along with the chain which consists of interlocking fetter links, scalloped cable links with engraving down the sides and two claw clasps. It''s a wonderful antique find, dating to the late 19th Century and all in excellent condition.WEIGHT: 20.4 grams MEASURES: Length 15.5 inches x Width 4mm � Fob Height 33mm (inc. loop) x Width 20mm x Depth 7mm � Seals 12 x 12mm METAL: 9ct Gold (Stamped) STONES: Bloodstone, Carnelian (12 x 12mm each) AGE: Victorian.
