Date English antique solid sterling silver with English silver hallmarks for Birmingham 1888, (date letter "o") on the t-bar and on the swivel/dog catch, so definitely all original and there are clear lion passant silver hallmarks on all the chain links. The silversmiths initials on the t-bar and dog catch are "G.E.G" (George Edward Gee - 1888 - 1907) and the attached silver medal is hallmarked Birmingham 1898.
Condition Excellent condition with no splits or repairs and with hardly any wear on the chain links, a lovely genuine example and a genuine 136 years old. A good heavy weight and the original silver swivel/dog catch still works perfectly and closes securely. The beautiful attached silver medal is also in excellent condition and has no added personal engravings.
