Wear it with the T-bar hanging from the dog clasp, remove it for a simpler look, or style the chain as a lariat with your favourite charms!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAntique watch chains of this style were popular during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras (late 1800s to early 1900s). The love knot motif has long symbolised love, unity and everlasting connection, making this an especially charming example of antique gold craftsmanship. There are no makers marks on this chain but there are 375 hallmark stamp on the clasp.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 9K true golden yellow gold, 19.5” \/ 50 cm, 37.5 g, 5mm wide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease checkout using Shop Pay if possible as this is the preferred method of payment. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease expect normal vintage or antique wear to all items.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease review my shipping and policy information on my website.
