A fine antique sterling silver trombone link Albert chain, dating to 1904. The chain is composed of alternating trombone and smaller circular links, each individually stamped with the lion passant, confirming its solid sterling silver quality.
Though actually a single Albert, this example features a functioning dog clip at both ends, allowing it to be worn in multiple ways — as a classic watch chain or as a stylish antique necklace. The craftsmanship is excellent, with smooth, well-made links and a lovely natural patina that speaks to its age.
Era:
Edwardian, 1904.
Hallmarks:
