It consists of faceted cable links and interlocking \"fancy\" links, featuring scalloped edges, pierced fretwork, and diamond-chasing down the sides, leading to its original T-bar and dog clips (stamped 9ct).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlbert chains were both a fashionable and practical accessory for a gentleman in the early 1900s, often adorned with a pocket watch or fob for quick access. This one perhaps belonged to a serving gentleman during the Great war and has been thoughtfully extended with matching antique curb links at each end to a total length of 17.8 inches, allowing it to sit elegantly at the collarbone as a loving keepsake necklace by a devoted wife in the hope her beloved would return home safely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a rare and meaningful piece of antique heritage and likely has a heartfelt story behind it. It can still be worn as a traditional watch chain, but at 17.8 inches, it is the ideal length to wear as a chic statement necklace that can be layered beautifully with other gold chains for a luxurious, textured look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eITEM NUMBER: AJ1277\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brilliance and Fire","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55316905329025,"sku":"AJ1277","price":1950.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0112\/8837\/9449\/files\/AntiqueEdwardianAlbertChainNecklace9ctGold17.8Inch.jpg?v=1774442694","url":"https:\/\/brillianceandfirejewellery.com\/products\/antique-victorian-albert-chain-necklace-9ct-gold-17-8-inch","provider":"Brilliance and Fire Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
