Antique Austro-Hungarian Double Clasp Gold Chain
Antique Austro-Hungarian Double Clasp Gold Chain
Handsome, Handy.
A watch chain that is long enough to wear as a necklace is always a good find. Here, we have an Austro-Hungarian gold chain finished with a clasp on each end — a swivel dog clip and that and large and lovely spring ring. Both clasps can do double duty to hang charms and pendants.
We love it solo or with a pendant suspended from the spring ring, but we think it would also be great attached to another chain to create a longer, mixed link look.
From the hallmark on the chain, we know that the chain was assayed in Pest, Hungary, no later than 1922.
Marked with Austro-Hungarian fox head (in use from 1872 to 1922) on the chain; marked 14k on the clasps.
14k gold.
Dimensions and weight:
● 16.75 inches long
● 1.9 mm wide on the chain; 15.2 mm outside diameter on the spring ring
● 1.7 mm deep
● 9.9 grams
Period: Art Deco (1920)
*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present. Clasps may be additions or replacements as they are marked 14k, but they are harmonious with the chain.
*For deliveries outside of the continental U.S., please contact us for shipping information.
