FAQs

Named after Prince Albert, an Albert watch chain is a traditional piece of jewellery designed to secure a pocket watch to a waistcoat pocket, utilizing a T-bar anchor and spring-loaded dog clip clasps.

Antique Albert chains were commonly forged from solid 9ct, 15ct, or 18ct gold, as well as sterling silver, featuring heavy hand-formed links built for daily wear.

Authentic antique chains typically carry official assay office hallmarks stamped directly onto individual chain links, the central T-bar, and the swivelling dog clips.

While originally designed for waistcoats, antique Albert chains are widely reinterpreted today as choker-style necklaces or worn layered with complementary gold pendants.

Clean gold watch chains gently using a soft lint-free cloth and mild soapy water, taking care to avoid submerging internal iron springs housed within the dog clip clasps.
