Antique 1927 Solid Sterling Silver Albert Chain and Fobs Vintage Rare
A nice English antique solid sterling silver Albert pocket watch chain by the silversmiths B H Britton & Sons (1912 - 1959) in good condition and with English silver hallmarks for Chester 1927. Lovely quality example with nice tight graduating silver chain links and with a silver t-bar and a secure silver swivel/dog catch. Attached is an antique fob medal, a small silver and enamel sailing boat fob and a genuine antique brass watch key. It weighs approx 29 grams, (total weight). Measures approx 10 inches (250mm) in length with a further 1 inch on the fob chain. English antique solid sterling silver with English silver hallmarks for Chester 1927, (date letter "B") on the t-bar; the swivel catch is also antique hallmarked, the date letter is unclear but looks to be all original and matching. There are clear lion passant silver stamps on all of the chain links and the silversmiths initials are "B & S", (B H Britton & Sons - 1912 - 1959) on both ends. The medal is unmarked, (possibly not silver) and the little boat charm is hallmarked "Silver". Good condition with no splits or repairs and with only minor wear on the chain links, a nice genuine antique example.
The silver swivel/dog catch still works well and opens and closes securely and has a good spring.
