Edwardian 18ct Gold Albert Chain

881W
491 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A heavy gage Albert chain that was made circa 1900-1910. It is termed as an “Albert” after Prince Albert, Queen Victoria’s husband, who popularised the wearing of chains across the waistcoat with seals and a “T” bar terminal. Nowadays they are worn as neck chains which look really good. This chain is composed of 18ct gold curb links that are an even size with two 18ct gold dog clips at either end. The 18ct gold T bar slides freely along the chain. It is marked “18” on each curb link.

If the chain needs to be lengthened we can add the spare links that are by the T bar up to 3cm.marked on each link.
