An impressive antique Victorian 18ct gold filled long guard chain featuring classic fetter and ball links throughout. The elongated links alternating with polished spheres create rhythm and movement along the full length, giving the chain presence and fluidity when worn.
Stamped “Gold Filled” and “Warranted 18ct”, the piece was made to emulate solid high-carat gold while offering durability and substantial wear — a popular and quality construction of the period.
At a generous 135 centimetres (53"), this is a true long guard, allowing it to be worn doubled, layered, or extended to full length. The chain is fitted with a dog clip fastener and can be detached and opened as a necklace, offering versatility in styling.
A strong Victorian example with substantial length and classic link design — ideal for layering, attaching pendants, or wearing alone as a statement piece.
