with 14k Clip & Links
$ 4,800.00
* * SOLD * *



An outstanding, Victorian, gold-rush-era chain, whose twenty-five natural gold nugget stations are connected by individual 14k gold links. The high-color, 22 - 24k gold nuggets are similar in size, but are various in form and texture— we love natural nuggets because, like small "found" sculptures, each has its own truly-unique character! This antique chain is a rarity. At 16” long, it makes a great short layer in an arrangement of necklaces. It can also be doubled and worn as a bracelet! This closes with an unusual, period, clip-style clasp. It has a comforting heft, and big gold vibes.
