Antique Edwardian 9k Gold Watch Chain Necklace, 17.5 Inches
$ 3,850.00
“Have you ever chased a sunset?”, she asked, he head cocked to one side. He looked at her quizzically as she grabbed his hand and led him to the car where they drove in the opposite direction of the world’s magical rotation. She donned the necklace he gave her with excitement in her emerald eyes. She told him that to truly appreciate the sunrise, you have to stay up all night and watch it from the other end of time. So they did.
This antique Edwardian 9 karat gold curb link watch chain was handcrafted around 1910 in England. It is a grand piece with a slight rosy gold color. This watch chain is fully hallmarked. The maker’s mark reads, ‘FF & Co’ meaning it was made by the wonderful and talented Fetter, Forbes & Co, of Hylton St, Birmingham. They operated from 1907 to 1921. The anchor mark means the Birmingham Assay Office. The gold purity marks read, ‘9’, and, ‘.375,’ both indicating this piece was crafted in 9 karat gold and it’s stamped on every link. This piece measures a lovely 17.5 inches in length and weighs 45.3 grams.
This classic piece was meant to be worn around that swan-like neck, maybe during a summer evening, by the lake, with a glass of champagne, to celebrate another perfect sunset.

Antique 50 inch Long Guard Chain Necklace in 18k Gold with Fancy Links
$ 6,550.00
Banking is a relatively new idea. Before the 19th century most people wore their wealth. The original idea of the chain, for example, was that you could pay for something by taking a link off of your chain, be it gold or silver. Precious metal has always equalled money, it was a good idea then and it remains a good idea today. Now, I wouldn't recommend paying for your Moët with a link off of this gorgeous French chain, but I suppose you could if you had to!
Honestly, everyone really needs to own one of these long gold chains. Preferable two or three, if you can swing it, but if you're limited to one, this one is a particularly good place to start. Intricate, glowing links with the feel of soft silk that only old gold seems to achieve. This chain is completely hand made of large fancy links with a round links between teardrop links framed with intermittent small plain links. Each link is individually hand soldered and the chain has a matching large round spring ring clasp which attaches to both ends and would originally have been used to hang a watch. The chain is 50 inches long and tests as 18 karat gold. This chain was likely made around 1900. The chain weighs 46.9 grams.
These chains are getting harder and harder to come by as many were broken up into several shorter lengths over time. It's always a treat when I find an original old long guard like this one!

Antique Art Nouveau Moonstone Gold Necklace
$ 1,220.00
The collective belief that says all new things are better than old is an old wives’ tale that I’m ready to abolish. Take a break from the usual and enter the antique side of things. I’ll warn you, it’s quite irresistible and rather addicting. Progressing backward in fashion goes against the flow, it defies logic - but darling, I think you’re due for a bit of rebellion.
This antique Art Nouveau moonstone necklace was handcrafted around 1900. It showcases that classic whiplash motif and is set with an oval cabochon moonstone at the center. The stone has a great flash of blue and measures 8 x 5.5 x 3.8 mm. The drop measures 46 mm north to south and 28.4 mm across. This piece bears no marks and has been acid tested. This lovely necklace measures 17 inches in length and it weighs 6.8 grams.
Style is as style does and my goodness this necklace most certainly does. I understand how obvious it sounds, but I don’t mind saying it - this piece is exceptional, and it belongs around your fabulous neck.

Antique Art Nouveau Pearl Wedding Necklace 15k Gold English
$ 1,850.00
It started to rain just ten minutes before the outdoor ceremony was supposed to start. She knew it had been a risk, but she really wanted to get married here, on this beach where they had first met, with her toes in the sand. So they waited, ten minutes, then twenty, then at twenty five the rain stopped, the skies began to clear. They passed out towels to the guests to dry their seats (at least she’d been prepared for this possibility). She linked arms with her Dad and he walked her down the sandy isle. A rainbow split the sky as she walked and she heard the little intake of breath from the gathered crowd. Perfect, she though, she’d known it would be perfect.
