Antique Art Nouveau Solid 14k Gold Double Albert Curb Link Watch Chain Necklace (20.5”)

The double Albert watch chain is characterized by having two equal lengths of chain attached to the T-bar. The original use for this wonderful piece back in the 1910’s when this chain was crafted was for one chain to hold the pocket watch, as the other was used to hold the watch key to wind the movement as the T-bar would then be affixed to the vest button hole and the center spring ring hanging next to it for fobs, charms, and talismans to bring out the character of the owner. You could tell a lot from a wearer just by their specific watch chain just like you could today by the different ways someone might wear or style their chains as well. Handcrafted out of a solid 14k gold these watch chains are becoming scarcely hard to find with each piece of hardware being thicker, heavier, and larger than the average and in perfect working functioning order and tight spring back as this dog clip eyelet spins a full 360 degree. Very versatile with numerous ways to wear this chain the mustache style T-bar (1.75” long) spring ring combo is fully stationary in the exact middle of the necklace allowing for a 1” hanging drop to wear your pendants and charms. At a perfect size to weight ratio of a wearable length of 20.5” and the curb link style chain a thick 3.5mm wide by 1.5mm thick with the entirety of the piece weighing a heavyweight of 28.8g this is a chain to pass down from generation to generation and a safe and sound investment.
