FAQs

Guard chains and muff chains are long necklaces historically worn during the Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian eras to secure pocket watches, lorgnettes, or hand warmers known as muffs.

These chains were typically crafted from solid gold, rolled gold, or gilt metals, often featuring functional components such as swivel dog clips and spring rings.

Authenticity is often determined by examining the construction techniques, hand-finished links, patination, and hallmarks or makers marks stamped onto the dog clip or jump rings.

A long chain can be doubled or tripled around the neck for a layered look, or worn at its full length, allowing the decorative dog clip to suspend pendants or charms.

Antique chains should be stored flat or hung carefully to prevent tangling, cleaned gently with a soft microfibre cloth, and kept away from harsh chemical jewellery cleaners.
