Victorian silver Albertina
$825.00
An Albertina was originally used to connect to a ladies pocket watch at one end with the swivel, and the tee bar connected to her outfit, however today these are more commonly worn as a bracelet where they look stunning.
This ladies Albertina was made in sterling silver in the late Victorian era of the 1890’s, and is made with a fancy chain that has a gorgeous cube set onto it, as well as the fancy twisted tee bar and that gorgeous foxtail link tassel.
From end to end the Albertina measures 23cm, and when the swivel is clipped into the round link near the tee bar, it measures 18cm and is a wonderful length to wear as a bracelet.
Perfect for day or night, this is a lovely example of an antique Albertina that will always be loved and admired.
