The Story

Classically beautiful and functional, T-bar chains of the Victorian and Edwardian Eras were typically used by men as pocket watch chains. The chain would traditionally feature a T-bar on one end, used to affix the chain to a vest button hole. We think this T-bar would make a lovely addition to top off your current vintage pocket watch chain! Crafted in a unique shade of 9 karat rose gold, the hue is warmer and more romantic than modern rose gold alloys. Hallmarks tell us this piece comes from Late Victorian Birmingham, England from the workshop of Joseph Cook & Sons.
