Presented is a beautiful Victorian 14 karat gold chain necklace. This is an
American piece, dating to around the 1860s-1880s. The chain is beautifully made
by hand, all the links intricately soldered and put together with skillful
craftsmanship that you really won't see in modern machine-made pieces. The chain
has an ornate clasp, set with real natural seed pearls, done in a variety of
contrasting gold finishes and colors.

This piece is in great condition. The clasp functions well and closes
securely. There are no splits, no breaks, and no repairs.

This piece is not stamped or hallmarked, but we have tested it with nitric
acid and guarantee each part to be 14 karat gold.

The necklace is about 21 3/4 inches long, not including the tongue of the
clasp, which does not contribute to the overall length when worn.

The necklace weighs 49.3 grams or 1.7 regular ounces.
