Carefully go over the measurements and make you sure read and understand all my policies.

Ask ANY AND ALL questions before submitting an offer or before purchasing (NOT AFTER)
This is an antique (meaning Victorian times old 1819 -1901) years old,  obviously pre-owned, used, worn, loved. Item is 140+ years old - wear commensurate with age.
NECKLACE is in good condition
Dog clip spring is in good condition - not super springy like a new one
(to be expected at this age - 1880s) - it opens and closes fine and feels secure
Links are in good condition and are sturdy.
Word of wisdom:
on long chains (I own many) links
can
at times get twisted
--- not a big deal - they will untwist just as easily.
This is usually not worth mentioning but some customers freak out at the smallest things. Again, not an issue.
PLEASE NO DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS you are buying a 140 year old item.
Ask any and all questions
BEFORE
bidding/purchasing -
what you see is what you'll get.  Need more pictures / additional measurements -- I 'll gladly help.
!!!!NO!!!!! You cannot return the item if you "don't like it" or if "you imagined something different".
That is your problem NOT mine. YOU have all the necessary information and many pictures from all angles to make a proper decision.
My items are
NOT
sold on approval.
If your intent or your expectations are any different - please shop with a vendor that has a generous return policy or go to a retail location where you can see the item in person, touch it etc.
ALL MY SALES ARE FINAL

Now, if you think you can coerce me into a return for a mistake YOU made - think again. I'll immediately involve eBay Trust & Safety.
Watch chain was not cleaned - I never clean antique items to preserve their patina but leave it up to the new owner to do as she/he deems fit.
