Medieval Chain Necklace
To make this chunky large-linked chain, I moulded an antique annular brooch, which was found by a metal detectorist! Apparently it’s a post-medieval annular brooch-piece. The moulded form could be injected into wax and then turn it into recycled sterling silver via the age old production method of lost-wax-casting.
This chunky chain is large but each link is lightweight and the calligraphic text the dimpled metal is crisp.
Details:
Adjustable length from 40cm (16 inches) - 46cm to (18 inches).
Weighs approx 55g.
This piece will be hallmarked in London.
A vintage sterling siver dog clasp.
Hand forged sterling silver chain at the back.
One of a kind.
Please allow 2-3 weeks for this piece as it needs to be hallmarked.
Care:
Silver naturally oxidises and darkens over time. To keep these vessels shiny and bright, use the polishing cloth included in your order, and read the care card enclosed, for more tips and tricks. ;)
