Swarovski Grey Pearl & Victorian Book Chain Necklace with Antique Topaz Pendant - 1950s

Half Swarovski grey pearl, half Victorian book chain — joined at a single point where an antique rolled gold heart pendant with a topaz glass centre hangs between them. The pearl strand is new and unused; the book chain is a handcrafted gold-plated replica sourced from specialist makers in the United States, faithfully reproducing the engraved interlocking links of the Victorian original. The pendant is antique.

The Victorian book chain rose to prominence in the 1850s — each flat, engraved link hand-fitted to the next, made to carry lockets and pendants of weight and significance. True originals are rare; this is a faithful handcrafted replica made to the same standard, sourced from international specialist markets and used selectively in Nes Vintage designs.
