A fancy link necklace, comprising alternating short lengths of textured byzantine link chain and hollow pierced box sections, to a bolt ring fastening, unhallmarked but tests to gold, with part marked jump ring, length 47cm, weight 26.7g
There is a good deal of tarnishing on the chain, so it would benefit from a good clean.? The gold is variable in colour, which may partly be due to tarnish;? acid testing gives differing results, but mainly for mid-quality gold (14 / 15ct).? Some of the fancy byzantine links have loose central encircling parts, but all links appear to be supple and secure.? The clasp and jump ring are probably not original.
