Antique Victorian 34cm Oval Link Necklace in 18ct Yellow Gold

A warm 18ct yellow gold shaped oval link necklace (34cm) from the Victorian period. Showcasing superb Victorian craftsmanship each link features partial hallmarks. This piece would likely have originally been an Albert chain that would have been paired with a prized pocket watch. This has been sympathetically adapted to a chain necklace (at a later date) with the addition of a practical concealed clasp. A perfect embodiment of bold gold style this piece can be worn today as a statement chain necklace.
