Description
I am selling a collection of antique chatelaine and jewelry items as seen in the last photo and will be listing several more pieces soon so please see my other offerings and check back often : )ABOUT:
One of a kind antique chunky cable chain solid silver bracelet with a little antique silver button attached as a charm. It depicts a dog and an oak branch with leaves and little acorns. It has a fob clasp on one side with the dog button attached and an extra large spring ring on the other.
This would also be great to connect to other chains to create a necklace, or could also be used as a chatelaine or watch chain.
The chain came from France and the charm from Bavaria, both antique turn of the century, Art Nouveau pieces. The charm is an old hunting themed button, which I purchased in a set of 6. I also have 2 pheasants and 2 deer/ stags / bucks as seen in photos so please reach out if you'd like to add additional "charms" / buttons to your order. Listing is for the chain and the one dog button.
MEASUREMENTS:
Chain is 8 1/4 inches in length. The charm is about 5/8 inch. The piece weighs about 18 grams.
MARKS:
Chain is marked with the French boar's head mark for solid silver. The button is also hallmarked with a maker's mark and 800 for solid silver content.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned with some age to them so they are in estate condition. The old button has the loop in the back center. It dangles off cutely but just a note that it isn't attached from the top so it twists and flips and hangs flat but it is still fun. I tried to show this in photos.
Piece is 100 years old or more so there is some surface wear and scratches. But I don't see any glaring condition issues, all the links are nicely formed, it is a sturdy piece. Some tarnish in the recesses of the charm but overall the condition and patina looks great. But Please note that due to age, this piece is not in mint condition.
I have many more antique pieces listed so please see my other items and thanks for stopping by!
