Dealers Notes

ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (because of GPSR legislation, we no longer post items less than 100 years old to Europe, including Northern Ireland).

Please contact us regarding international shipping.

All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.

We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.

Credit / debit card purchases up to £300 can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the 'Purchase Antique' button on each listing page. Alternatively, there is a Paypal payment link if you scroll down the page and we also accept bank transfers.

We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.

With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.

This 1920s double pocket watch Albert chain and necklace comes from the Art Deco period, rendered in silver with a bright metallic finish. The piece displays uniform curb links, two swivel dog clips, a central T-bar fastener stamped with the word sterling, and rubbed lion silver marks on the individual links. One dog clip functions as a later period replacement, while the hardware includes secure lobster claw style spring mechanisms on both ends. Each length of chain measures 27 cm long including the T-bar and clasp, extending to an overall length of 48 cm when worn as a necklace, with a total weight of 36 g. Suitable for modern styling as a necklace or alternative jewellery, this accessory integrates effortlessly into historical collections or traditional gentleman's library displays. The versatile design allows wearers to attach vintage pocket watches or display the piece draped as a neck adornment.

FAQs

A double Albert chain is a traditional pocket watch accessory featuring two lengths of chain attached to a central T-bar, designed to span across a waistcoat with a pocket watch on one side and a fob or accessory on the other.

During the 1920s, Albert chains were predominantly crafted from sterling silver, gold plate, or solid gold, using uniform curb, trace, or rope links connected to swivel clasps.

Authentic period pieces frequently feature individual hallmarks or silver purity stamps on each chain link, the T-bar, and the swivel dog clips, alongside wear consistent with historical use.

While originally designed for waistcoats, double Albert chains are widely repurposed today as multi-strand necklaces, layered chokers, or wrapped wrist bracelets.

To maintain silver jewellery, wipe the surface gently with a soft polishing cloth and store it in a dry, airtight container to prevent oxidisation.
