The fine trace chain is punctuated at intervals by small sapphire-set stations, introducing flashes of deep blue throughout the exceptionally long gold chain.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nEach 3.8mm station is formed as a small rounded gold cluster surrounding old cut sapphires, with the settings incorporated directly into the chain. The arrangement gives the necklace a delicate decorative rhythm without interrupting its fluidity. At over four feet long, it can be worn at full length or doubled, and retains its original period clasp.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPresented in very good antique condition with light age-related wear and patina consistent with its age.
