Fabulous Victorian Gargoyle Watch Chain 9k solid gold chain and 12k heavy gold shell

This wonderful watch chain features the best little gargoyle monster! Perhaps this little buddy shows off your wild side! Everything about this piece is unique including the solid gold chain which was carefully tested by my jeweler as 9k. The end caps and Gargoyle test as 12k, however it is likely that these elements are heavy gold shell as they are soldered together from two halves and weighted inside. I had the ring over the gorgoyle's head built up with gold as it had thinned over time. The chain is 12 1/4" long and can be worn by a petite wrist twice around. It could be extended for wear as a necklace with another chain. It could be shortened to be a bracelet, but this would require a jeweler experienced with antique jewelry. I don't know what is holding the chain into the decorative ends. It could be low temperature solder, soft solder or sealing wax. One never knows! What we do know is that this is a rare and fabulous find!
