An absolutely gorgeous Georgian chain with a Hand and Snake clasp.
The chain is circa 1800, and is made of a wonderful bright yellow high carat gold.
Each link has been lovingly made by hand; every ring is interlaced to create a 3D chain.
The links are connected with a tiny flat plate of gold which catches the light wonderfully.
These chains would have been worn by candlelight! So you can just imagine how they would twinkle.
The clasp is in exceptional condition, it is crafted in high carat gold, depicting a cuffed hand grasping an Ouroboros snake!
The hand is adorned with a garnet ring and a large cabochon garnet is set within the foliate cuff.
The reverse of the hand also has lovely chasing details.
The snake is such a fabulous detail! His entire body is chased and his face is super expressive.
Length of chain approx: 95.5cm
Diameter of chain approx: 0.6cm
Clasp size approx: 3cm x 1.5cm
Weight approx: 40g
Can be worn once or twice around the neck for different looks!
A very rare find, in excellent condition.
