ABOUT THIS ACCESSORY

While not quite a Luddite, you do prefer to use an actual watch--instead of your phone--to check the time of day. And, perhaps you prefer a pocket watch to one worn on your wrist. If so, we have something special for you. Hailing from the heyday of the Gold Rush, circa 1850, this rare and unusual watch chain will keep your timepiece close at hand in fine style. Composed of 26 small 22K gold nuggets--with a swivel clasp at one end and a t-bar at the other-- it features a square rose gold fob fashioned with four triangular gold-in-quartz inlays on one side and an engraved initial 'S' on the reverse. Dare we say it's timeless. Hand fabricated in 14K rose gold (connecting jump rings) and 14K yellow gold (swivel and t-bar), it measures 11 inches.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
