ANTIQUE #SA1117971

Antique Victorian Long Rope Guard Chain Necklace 9ct Gold

£2,450    $3,080    €2,941
This substantial antique Victorian rope guard chain dates to the late 19th Century. The thick rope-twist chain is expertly fashioned in solid 9ct yellow gold and has a silky feel and lovely sheen, with a claw clasp fitted along the length.
 
Guard chains were at the height of popularity in the 18th & 19th Century. Both fashionable and practical, they were deliberately long enough to be tucked into a belt and the clasp was usually adorned with a pocket watch, lorgnette or muff.
 
This is a grand antique Guard chain with a good weight and ample length, measuring 74 inches. It can be worn as one long chain or looped two to three times around the neck, creating luxurious festoons of gold.
 
We recommend you insure for £2,750. We can provide a written Valuation on completion of the sale.
