Antique French 18ct Yellow Gold Longuard Chain – Circa 1900

A stunning, fine and impressive, antique 18 carat yellow gold longuard chain; part of our collection of French chains

This exceptional, fine and impressive antique chain has been crafted in 18ct yellow gold.

The gold longuard chain necklace consists of plain trace chain links.

This exceptional and tactile chain is hallmarked to the ring loop terminal with the French 18ct gold mark (eagle’s head) and has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 18 carat gold.

By virtue of its length, this antique gold chain may be worn as a two strand or three strand necklace via the plain swivel clasp and spring-loaded bolt ring fastening; alternatively the chain may be wrapped multiple times around the wrist to be worn as a bracelet.

This French early 20th century 18ct gold longuard chain makes an exceptional gift for birthdays, anniversaries or milestone celebrations, especially for those who appreciate antique craftsmanship. Its generous length and versatile design make it perfect for layering with other necklaces or wearing alone as a statement piece, adding effortless sophistication to both modern and antique-inspired looks.

This impressive 18ct gold longuard chain necklace is exceptional quality and a superior gauge of gold for its length.

The chain is in exceptional condition, with a clear hallmark to the ring loop.

Lovely selection & excellent service

AC Silver has a stunning selection of antique and vintage items. Both of my brooches arrived right on time as indicated by the tracking. They are even lovelier in person and I look forward to wearing them for decades to come. Andrew and Gemma provided excellent communication and prompt dispatch. I would absolutely recommend working through them.

Excellent customer care.

I had to place the order over the phone as my internet was misbehaving. The lady who I spoke to could not have been more helpful and was particularly careful to get all the details correct. I was then informed about the collection and dispatch of the item purchased, by email. The item arrived as expected and it had been most well packed so that no harm could come to it. It was a delight to purchase this item from C6323, AC Silver, and I could not fault any aspect of their customer care. I was highly delighted with my silver mustard pot and it was much better than the pictures on the web site.
