An original antique bolt ring clasp crafted in 9ct rose gold, dating to around the turn of the 20th century. With its warm rosy tone and substantial circular profile, this is an increasingly useful antique fitting for completing a period chain or creating a secure attachment point for pendants, charms and fobs.
The clasp retains its original spring-loaded mechanism, operated by the small side lever, and is fully functional with a strong, secure closure. Clearly marked for 9ct gold, its simple form makes it particularly versatile, whether used to restore an antique necklace or Albert chain, or incorporated into a contemporary charm arrangement.
Presented in excellent antique condition, with only light surface wear consistent with age. The spring mechanism works exactly as intended and closes securely, making this an attractive original fitting that remains ready for continued use more than a century after it was made.
