Antique curb and roller ball link Albert made in 1914

Originally the Albert chain was designed to hold a pocket watch to a gents waistcoat, however when men put down their pocket watches in place of the “new” wrist watches at the turn of the 20th century, after a while women started to wear these around their neck, and here is a very beautiful and tactile antique Albert chain that not only looks so beautiful but feels so beautiful wear.

Made in Birmingham in 1914, it was made in 9 carat rose gold that has such a lovely warm tone to it that highlights it even more, and looks wonderful against the skin.

Made with the traditional curb links, what makes this Albert chain differ from so many others, are the round facetted belcher links set between each curb link. Not only adding a wonderful look, but the way they roll through the fingers and even along the neck makes it both look and feel spectacular and is so comfortable to wear all the time.

This is a full double Albert and measures 39cm from end to end and is also not only fitted with its original tee bar in the centre, but also a bolt ring to attach something such as a medal or seal.

Still in superb condition, this is such a wonderful antique Albert chain that will be perfect to wear day or night.
