This antique brass fob chain, complete with a traditional crossbar and adorned with a stunning sterling silver and rose gold fob medal has been repurposed into a modern necklace.
During the Victorian era, a well-dressed gentleman adhered to a strict dress code that emphasized understated and essential jewellery items. The gentleman's watch chain was one of the few areas where personal expression was permitted. This antique brass fob chain, featuring a classic crossbar design, is a perfect example of such personal touches.
The chain's crossbar end was designed to be inserted into a buttonhole, with the watch securely placed in the vest pocket. To facilitate easy retrieval of the pocket watch, a fob was often attached. This fob, typically a medal or crest, hung over the front of the pocket and was anchored to the watch chain via a short chain or ribbon. Our featured fob medal, crafted from sterling silver and accented with rose gold, showcases the meticulous craftsmanship and refined elegance of the period.
The antique brass fob chain adds a touch of vintage charm and durability, while the sterling silver and rose gold fob medal exemplifies the era's attention to detail and sophistication.
Susie Lewis, the founder of Flew Design, brings her unique artistic vision and craftsmanship to each piece blending historical elements with contemporary design. Since 2015, Flew Design has been collaborating with The Signet Bureau, bringing exceptional craftsmanship and curated collections to a wider audience. This partnership showcases unique and meaningful jewellery pieces, allowing customers to own a piece of history reimagined through modern artistry.
