A striking Victorian sterling silver Albert chain necklace with an ornate oval silver locket pendant, converted from a gentleman’s Albert watch chain into a bold and highly wearable antique necklace.
The substantial hallmarked sterling silver chain has excellent weight and presence.
Suspended from the central ring is a beautifully detailed oval locket featuring applied silver bands, engraved foliate decoration, and a richly textured central panel of raised silver detailing that catches the light beautifully against the softly oxidised finish. Delicate silver beadwork around the border adds further depth and craftsmanship.
An elegant statement piece with strong antique character, equally suited to layering or wearing alone.
