Antique Victorian Guard Chain 9ct Gold

A luxurious antique Victorian guard chain made up of solid cable links fashioned in 9ct gold. Each link is lovely and smooth with a muted golden tone and is fitted with the classic claw clasp at the end.

Guard chains were at the height of popularity in the 18^th & 19^th Century. Both fashionable and practical, they were deliberately long enough to be tucked into a belt and the clasp was usually adorned with a pocket watch, lorgnette or muff. 

It has a good weight and length, measuring 62 inches so it can be worn as one long chain or looped twice around the neck to make two festoons of gold.  

We recommend you insure for £4,200. We can provide a written Valuation on completion of the sale.
