The chain is complete with its original dog clips and T-bar, assayed in Birmingham in 1918 and stamped with the prestigious mark of Frank William Cole, with a large shield fob medallion suspended from a drop chain at the end, stamped Chester 1903.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eEach component of this Albert chain tells a poignant story of homecoming. Produced in the final year of the Great War in 1918, when silver was scarce, it likely celebrated a veteran's safe return home to civilian life. The pairing with an older fob, engraved with laurels for victory, suggests it was passed down from a father and worn proudly as a medal of honour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePreserved in excellent condition, this heavy Albert chain boasts a bright, authentic patina that only a century of history can create and likely has a wonderful story behind it. A perfect acquisition for the discerning collector that can be worn as a traditional watch chain or as a bold statement choker necklace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWEIGHT\u003c\/b\u003e: 51 grams   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMEASURES\u003c\/b\u003e: Length 16 inches x Width 5 - 7.5mm – T-Bar Length 40mm x Width 3mm – Medallion Height 33mm x Width 25mm (40mm drop)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMETAL\u003c\/b\u003e: Sterling Silver (Stamped) \u003cspan style=\"mso-tab-count: 1;\"\u003e           \u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAGE\u003c\/b\u003e: Edwardian.
