FAQs

Popularised by Prince Albert in the mid-19th century, an Albert chain is a metal chain designed to secure a pocket watch to a waistcoat, featuring a T-bar on one end and a swivel clasp on the other.

Victorian watch chains were predominantly crafted from sterling silver, hallmarked gold, rolled gold, or pinchbeck, frequently constructed with solid curb links and decorative fobs.

Authentic Victorian examples typically feature British hallmarks stamped on individual curb links, the T-bar, and the swivel clasp, identifying the silver purity, assay town, and maker.

Antique silver watch chains and fobs are commonly displayed inside glass shadow frames, mounted on velvet boards, or placed atop vintage books within glass cabinet displays.

Silver chains should be wiped gently using a dry microfibre cloth and stored in anti-tarnish pouches, avoiding harsh liquid dips that remove dark natural oxidisation from deep engravings.
