Antique sterling silver trombone link chain. What a wonderful necklace in a great length! This chain would have originally been worn on a man's pocket watch and is divided into two sections. The oblong shaped links are very simply connected together with a single rounded link in the longer section with terminates with a large jump ring to the end. A t-bar divides the sections and the oblong links alter with a series of three small rounded links in the shorter section with terminated with a large silver dog clip. Circa 1910s - 1920, British in origin.

In very good condition. The lion mark for sterling silver is very deep on a lot of the links. Slight bends to a couple of links where the assay office has impressed these links.

Marked for sterling throughout. The dog clip has a maker's mark for J.T&S, and one of the links a date letter for 1913. The t-bar for W.J.S, date letter for 1919. I'm not sure which is a replacement. They match well in size and style though.

Measures approx 42 cm / 16.5 inches in wearable length. Long links are 20.3mm / 0.80 inch long by 4.9 mm / 0.20 inches tall.

Weighs 23.6 grams.
