The chain measures 17cm end to end and weighs 9.9 grams. Fitted with a swivel dog clip at one end and a bolt ring (spring ring) at the other. Both clasps carry small punched hallmarks consistent with continental silver. The niello is intact across every link with no loss or chipping. A compact, finely decorated chain.
