...br>CONDITION
This is a perfect example of a well-looked-after silver antique Albert chain necklace. The chain shows light wear, and the silver has a dark, rich patina in some areas. The dog clips are in fine working order, fastening the chain securely. This would be a superb everyday piece and make a lovely gift idea.
