The chain measures **16.125 inches** (41 cm) without clasps and extends to **17.75 inches** (45 cm) including both the oversized spring-ring (bolt-ring) clasp and the dog clip—perfect length for everyday wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth clasps are in excellent working condition: smoothly operating, strong, and recently conditioned\/cleaned for reliable use. The large bolt-ring clasp is especially rare and well-preserved, with vibrant rose-gold gilt and minimal wear to the niello—truly exceptional for pieces of this age and style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain is substantial yet elegant at **21.3 grams**, crafted in tested **800 silver** (a durable alloy prized for niello work due to its ability to withstand the high-heat firing process). The niello links show only light, age-appropriate wear, with some subtle loss of rose-gold gilt on the highest points—adding to its authentic vintage charm without detracting from its overall beauty. The design remains crisp and eye-catching, far more impressive in person than photos can capture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis versatile piece easily adapts to multiple looks:\u003cbr\u003e\n- Wear it as a **classic 17.75\" necklace**\u003cbr\u003e\n- Double it for a chic **bracelet**\u003cbr\u003e\n- Use it as an **extender** for longer chains or layered styles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain has developed only a light, natural patina—no harsh professional cleaning has been done. I've gently wiped it with a soft jewelry cloth, leaving it clean, ready to wear, or gift as-is. The new owner can decide if they prefer to maintain its soft antique glow or polish it further.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA breathtaking, collectible example of antique niello craftsmanship—rarely found in such fine, functional condition!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMark(s): It bears the silver purity mark, “800”.
