Antique Silver Pocket Watch Chain, Queen Victoria Fob

19th century
Description

Antique silver pocket watch chain, Queen Victoria fob.

The chain measures 43cm long including the T-bar and the clasp. The T-bar is hallmarked for 1887 with a maker’s mark for the Birmingham silversmith Henry Pope. The T-bar is a little out of shape. Each of the links also has a silver mark but they are quite rubbed.

The chain comes with a heavy duty silver fob, hallmarked for 1890. It has the coat of arms for Queen Victoria, and was made to commemorate her Golden Jubilee, such items being produced between 1887 and 1892. There would originally have been enamel detail on the fob but some has fallen out over the years.

Total weight 59g.

Declaration

FAQs

An Albert chain, named after Prince Albert, is a functional chain designed to secure a pocket watch to a waistcoat or jacket, traditionally featuring a T-bar and decorative fob pendant.

Antique watch chains were predominantly constructed from sterling silver, gold, rolled gold, or pinchbeck, often featuring soldered curb links accompanied by enamelled or gemstone-set fobs.

Authentic silver chains typically display British hallmarks stamped on individual links, the T-bar, and the swivel clasp, indicating silver purity, assay office marks, and date letters.

Modern collectors often wear antique Albert chains as necklaces, drape them across tailored blazers, or incorporate them into layered jewellery arrangements and shadow box displays.

Clean silver components gently using a soft, non-abrasive polishing cloth, avoiding chemical dips or solvents that could damage delicate enamel detailing or natural oxidisation.
