watch chain style necklace chain - sterling silver rolo chain with dog
An old watch chain style necklace chain to hold your necklace charms, a rolo chain that closes several ways with a swivel clasp dog clip on either end, reminiscent of the Georgian and Victorian Eras when both ladies and gentlemen would clasp their fobs, watches, charms and wax seals to a watch swivel dog clip attached to a chain.
Please note, this listing is for the old watch chain only and the charm is shown as an example.

The swivel dog clip charm holder opens by pushing the pivot near the base/swivel part of the charm.
If you'd prefer the dog clips not swivel and be more stiff - for example, you don't want to give your charms the opportunity to spin around backwards, just let me know and I can pinch a portion a wee bit to deter it from swiveling ... just let me know.
***The last photo shows approximately where each chain length falls on a female but note that this varies a bit for every individual, dependent on your neck size.
Note: not all lengths shown in that last photo are available in this style.
Impressed with history!
