Necklace and earrings constructed with English watch fobs c. 1920-1940
This is a fascinating suite of necklace and earrings that have been made using men's' watch fobs from the early 20th century. There are seven fobs in all. They are mainly for winning competitions. One is for winning a dance competition in 1945 and the others are sports. The largest central fob is from a men's society like the masons. It has its coat of arms on the front as is dated 1922. A bit of history to adorn the neck! The necklace is a vintage belcher chain of approximately the same age.Size: | Necklace 46cm long, Largest central fob is 4 x 2.8 cm, Earrings are 3.9 x 2.4 cm each |
