Victorian Ladies French Jet Watch Chain Fob Black Glass w T Bar

This Victorian-era Ladies watch chain showcases striking French jet glass beads, each expertly faceted to catch the light with dramatic effect. The chain features a classic T-bar fastener at one end and a decorative swivel clip at the other, perfect for securing a timepiece or other treasured accessories. This sophisticated piece exemplifies the mourning jewelry aesthetic of the late 1800s, when French jet glass became a popular alternative to true jet, offering both the deep black color and brilliant faceting that defined the period's somber yet refined style. This chain is rather short and terminates in a beveled cube shaped fob pendant. This piece is over 100 years old and does have some age related wear, however she is sturdy and will be at home in any antique jewelry collection.
