A substantial and beautifully made antique sterling silver Albert chain, featuring a classic T-bar and an engraved vesta case drop. The fancy link chain is stamped with the Lion Passant on alternating hoops and fastens with a secure dog clip clasp.

The vesta case is fully hallmarked for Birmingham 1913 and bears the maker’s mark WHH. This is believed to be William Hair Haseler, a noted Birmingham silversmith active during the Edwardian period, though this attribution has not been independently verified. The hallmark includes the Anchor for Birmingham, the Lion Passant for sterling silver, and a serifed uppercase ‘O’, which confirms the year as 1913.

Both the T-bar and dog clip are marked J·S with a six-pointed star. This mark is believed to belong to Joseph Smith & Sons of Birmingham, a known maker of silver watch chains and fittings during the early 1900s. While this attribution is likely, it has not been independently confirmed. The chain links themselves are stamped with the Lion Passant, but no maker’s mark is visible, which is typical for hand-assembled Albert chains from this era.

Please note the stopper on the top of the vesta case is missing. See photos for full condition details.

A wearable and collectable piece with excellent antique character and a clear Edwardian hallmark.

Surprisingly good product.
Size: 5X-Large, Color: Grey Black
Came exactly as suspected. When ordering a 3 piece tux I expected to find some sort of problem or something that didn't fit, but I was pleasantly surprised. Looks like the photos and fits as advertised. So very happy. Doesn't look cheap or gimmicky. Thank you!

Good quality stank fishy smell
Size: Small, Color: Silver
Beautiful but it stank badly smells like fish. Wherever y'all have it stored in when y'all have it needs to be cleaned out. Now I have to take it to get cleaned/steamed because of this stank smell. Need give me some of my money back much as it cost. Now I got to pay get smell out of it is ridiculous. Cost to much for this to smell how it smells.
