(DECONSTRUCTION EVENT) Vintage Portuguese Filigree Gold Long Chain

from $1,800.00

DECONSTRUCTION EVENT: We are now making this super long chain available in a “deconstructed” state, for those who prefer their chains shorter. We are offering two 41 inch lengths of this chain — in a few configurations: (1) open loops to be worn with our Lucky 8 clasps or your own; (2) with the original large loop and a new 18k spring ring; or (3) with a new 18k loop and new 18k spring ring. Wear these deconstructed chains full length or doubled. Please allow additional time for work to be done by our jeweler. Note also that the lengths of the final chains may vary very slightly from 41 inches.

**If you have a request for a different length/configuration, please contact us.

Captivating, Shimmering.

This high karat gold long chain is stunning. Light reflective flat elongated links alternate with navette links to form a chain luxuriously long enough to wrap four times.

This beauty is distinctively Portuguese — crafted in 19.2k gold, ornamented with fine filigree, a jewelry-making technique deeply rooted in their culture and history, The chain is “closed,” to be slipped over the head. Add a standalone lock to the incorporated closed gold loop to suspend charms, pendants, or even add a brooch. With nearly 7 feet of chain, play with the myriad configurations. We love this one doubled or tripled for easy elegance.

Richly hued yellow gold, but not overly so.

Marked with Portuguese cat’s head for “800” (19.2k) gold fineness and maker’s mark.

19.2k gold.

Dimensions and weight:

● 83 inches long

● 3.9 mm wide

● .4 mm deep

● 25.7 grams

Period: 1938 - 1984

*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age commensurate wear may be present.

*For deliveries outside of the continental U.S., please contact us for shipping information.
