1870s UK Victorian Era Openwork Snake Chain

This exquisite snake chain from the Victorian era, circa 1870s Britain, is crafted from 9k gold and measures 46.5 cm in length. Its articulated links, with subtly rounded edges, form a smooth, serpentine silhouette. This design offers a layered spatial structure that balances geometric rhythm with remarkable flexibility. Each link is adorned with openwork detailing on all four sides, lending a transparent and refined aesthetic to the otherwise structured chain. The snake chain is in good antique condition. The clasp bears a 9CT hallmark, showing normal signs of oxidation and wear consistent with its age. The links are intact and show no significant deformation, reflecting its status as a century-old antique, not a new item.
