Description

An antique 9ct yellow gold single Albert watch chain of curb link design. The chain is fitted with a T-bar and a swivel clasp. Suspended from the chain is a circular rotating swivel fob bezel-set with two hardstone panels. One side appears to be a dark green bloodstone with red inclusions, while the reverse appears to be a reddish-brown carnelian or sard. The T-bar and individual links of the chain are stamped with British hallmarks including 9 and .375, indicating 9-carat gold purity. A maker’s mark consisting of the letters M and W within a rectangular cartouche is visible on the T-bar. The chain is constructed from gold.
