ABOUT:

Champagne taste on a beer budget?
In an effort to offer antiques at all budgets and price points - My next stock drop consists of all vintage and antique pieces in gold fill (or other). Great to wear when traveling and make excellent gifts!

All are being sold as is, in pre-owned condition with signs of age and wear. No returns as many of these are sold at or near what I paid for them and I am just trying to match them with loving homes, for the love of antiques and gold fill since I started out my career dealing in these.

Additional items shown in group photos will be listed separately in the shop and are shown for scale and color comparison.

We begin with:
Please note the measurements, please note the measurements, please please please please please note the measurements (sung to the cheerful children's melody "Super Simple Songs" with my 4 year old niece ; ).

ABOUT:
French vintage long chain with openwork oval links.

Dainty links but a lovely shimmer. It came to me without a clasp so I added a modern gold fill clasp.

MEASUREMENTS:
29 inches long

Weight: 3.75 grams

Antique boxes, props, extras, etc are not included. Listing is for the one piece shown in the cover photo. Please note the measurements as I have small hands and it can be difficult to determine scale from pics. We lovelies all come in wonderfully unique shapes and sizes : ) - some of these are short chains or dainty earrings.

I once had an angry buyer contacting me after purchasing:
"Is this for a CAT?!?
Is this for a BABY?!?)"
She asked, Haha - shouty caps and all! The measurements are always in the listings but tend to get missed.
Some fit me nicely at a short length but I suppose they could also be worn by a youth (or a cat if desired).
(Gotta have a sense of humor in this business sometimes - tee hee : )

IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Surface wear. These often need an occasional re-polish after sitting in the jewelry box for a long time (at least compared to high carat solid gold).
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned and in estate condition. I have mentioned any noticeable issues above and they are all still wearable and eager to be loved and accepted for many years to come, (the preservation of antique jewelry, even those with signs of their age and history, is important to me. : ) They will have patina, surface wear, a few small nicks. These pieces may also have evidence of a sizing, some build up around the stones and / or inclusions seen under magnification, typical for antique pieces. They are all still wearable. Sold as is.
Please note due to age, this piece is not in mint condition. Pictures also serve as part of the description and condition report so please utilize the zoom feature which will magnify any wear significantly more than what is visible to the eye while wearing : )

Please feel free watch @mouseshouseantiques on Instagram for inventory drops, sneak peaks and previews!

All items hand picked by me, one at a time from all over the world. All listings individually written by me, and not AI, after studying each piece to discuss its beauties and its ; ) eccentricities (which I am picky to point out).
