This antique Victorian snake chain necklace features a classic design known for its fluidity and subtle shimmer. Crafted in lustrous 18ct gold, the chain measures 17.75 inches in length and 3mm in width, making it perfect for layering or wearing alone.
The piece weighs 14.05g and is in excellent antique condition. The necklace closes with a 14ct gold bolt ring clasp, a seemingly later replacement for the original, though it remains a beautiful and well-fitting, period-correct component.
Popular during the Victorian period, the snake chain design symbolises eternity and everlasting love. This necklace exemplifies the enduring allure of Victorian-era jewellery.
