9CT GOLD FANCY BELCHER LINK NECKLACE

Beautiful Victorian style 9ct Gold fancy link chain necklace with feature clasp. This is a fancy belcher link chain that creates a round appearance to the chain; every other rounded belcher link is lightly larger creating the more textured roundness to the chain.

This is a new chain - in a vibrant Yellow Gold. The lovely jumbo carabiner clasp closes with a reassuringly strong spring. Fully hallmarked for London, the chain measures 18 inches / 46cm long and weighs approximately 12.1g.

A matching 7.5" bracelet is also available.

A  belcher chain is defined as having a link that is wider than its thickness. Generally, the links are round, but the shape of the link can vary, as in this piece.

The European exploration of the Americas was fueled in no small part by reports of the gold ornaments displayed in great profusion by Native American peoples, especially in Mesoamerica, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. However, for the indigenous peoples of North America gold was considered useless and they saw much greater value in other minerals which were directly related to their utility, such as obsidian, flint, and slate.
