Victorian 9ct Gold Two-tone Curb Chain Necklace Unmarked 375 16" 24.1g

1900 - 1920
Description

Victorian 9ct Gold Two-Tone Curb Chain Necklace

Unmarked | 375 | 16” | 24.1g

A Victorian-era curb chain necklace crafted in 9ct gold (375 fineness), featuring an attractive two-tone design. The traditional curb links alternate between yellow and white gold, each polished to a smooth finish to create a refined bi-color appearance.

The necklace displays a classic, well-balanced profile with closely interlocking links forming a continuous and fluid line around the neck. The piece is unmarked; while UK legislation permits unhallmarked gold items under one gram, the substantial weight of this necklace indicates that formal hallmarks were not applied at the time of manufacture, a circumstance not uncommon in period jewellery.

The necklace secures with a clasp consistent with curb chain designs, likely a spring-ring or lobster-style fastening, ensuring both practicality and wearability.

Approximate dimensions and weight:

Length: 16 inches

Weight: 24.1 grams

Declaration

Bushells Antiques has dated this Victorian Gold Curb Necklace to the 1920s.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Victorian curb chains feature interlocking flattened links designed to lie flat against the skin, crafted in warm gold alloys popular during the late nineteenth century.

Two-tone chains from the Victorian era were crafted by alternating links of yellow gold with silver or white-toned metal accents, creating contrast through precise hand-assembly.

Authentic Victorian pieces often feature specific carat markings such as 9ct or 15ct, distinct hand-finished link contours, and original clasp mechanisms like barrel or swivel fasteners.

A classic 16-inch curb chain can be worn independently as a subtle statement at the collarbone or layered alongside modern gold pendants for an eclectic aesthetic.

Clean antique gold chains using a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled toothbrush, followed by drying with a microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners.
