This antique watch chain is wonderfully unusual, with the kind of details that make you stop and take a closer look.
The star of the show is the series of gorgeous banded agate panels, each one bringing its own natural pattern and earthy character. The fan and shell motifs give the piece a distinctly late Victorian feel, though the design also hints at the early Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods.
There are no visible stamps or hallmarks, and we believe the chain is a base metal with a silver-tone finish. At 11 inches long, it’s the perfect size for a collector who loves to get creative. Wear it as a unique necklace component, pair it with other antique chains, or use it as the foundation for your very own Franken-necklace (yes, that’s a thing and it’s we love it).
A wonderfully quirky piece of jewelry history waiting for its next incarnation.
