Victorian Five-Strand Ball Collar portrait ring an archaic approach to makeDATE: Victorian, c. 1880 A striking Victorian period collar comprising five strands of silver balls. It's bold styling has the sort of timeless quality that wouldn't have looked out of place in any decade since it was made, around 1880, with the exception perhaps of the 1900s. The clasp is particularly charming, having been etched with a continuation of the pattern: silver circles over a darker, hatched background. MEASUREMENTS Width: 2. 9cm Wearable
