Hi! You're looking at my fantastic vulcanite watch chain or Albert as they were known back in Victorian times. Mourning jewellery was very popular during the Georgian and Victorian eras and served as a touchstone to remember loved ones who had passed before photographs were readily available. It was predominately black but not always, it was frequently adorned with the deceased loved ones hair, or with symbolic decoration such as white enamel for a virgin, unmarried woma...n, pearls for an infant or to represent tears. These days it would make an amazing choker style necklace. Belcher style links of vulcanite with brass Shepard hook and brass dog clip.
