Step into the dark romanticism of the 1890s with this authentic Victorian Niello and 9K Rose Gold Vermeil necklace. At nearly 19 inches long, this chain offers a classic "Princess" drape, resting perfectly at the collarbone. Featuring the elongated "Trombone" architecture, each link is a testament to the sophisticated craftsmanship of the late 19th century.
• This chain features a substantial 9K Rose Gold vermeil over a silver base. The gold is wonderfully present, offering a warm, coppery glow that provides a rich contrast against the darkened Niello.
