Description

Antique silver watch chain and fobs.

The chain measures 33cm long including the T-bar and the clasp. The T-bar and clasp are hallmarked for 1899, with a maker’s mark for the Birmingham silversmith Booth & Biggs. Each of the links has the lion silver mark, and one has the Booth & Biggs mark so we can be happy that all the components of the chain are original to each other.

The chain comes with two fobs formed from coins, an Australian George V 1920 sixpence and an Australian George V 1916 one shilling.

Total weight 45g.

FAQs

An albert chain is a type of watch chain attached to a pocket watch, named after Prince Albert, who frequently wore them during the Victorian era.

Antique watch chains were predominantly crafted from sterling silver, 9ct or 15ct gold, rolled gold, and occasionally base metals like brass or pinchbeck.

Authentic pieces often feature British silver hallmarks indicating the assay office, date letter, and sterling standard, alongside makers marks on the links, T-bar, and swivels.

Antique chains can be worn as necklaces or waist accessories, or displayed in domestic settings within glass-topped display cases or vintage shadow boxes.

Antique silver should be gently cleaned using a soft microfibre cloth to remove tarnish without stripping the historic patina, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can damage delicate links.
