This is the coolest smaller Albertina chain I have come across in a while, and it does double duty as either a perfect (not too long!) bracelet or a chain extender. The piece is fashioned from warm yellow 9ct gold - the best antique tone in my opinion - and the squared link chain is affixed with a dog clip and features a decorative, engraved slider in the middle of the chain. The other end of the slider are three adorable charms - a heart padlock, a puffy heart with a blue sapphire centre and a small, decoratively twisted t-bar.
I love this piece, not only for the perfectly toned gold, but for all of the tiny details. The hearts are incredibly sweet and I love the delicate chasing on the heart padlock and the slider. As someone with a smaller wrist, it’s rare to find an Albertina that fits, and this one does the trick. And as someone who loves to fidget with here jewellery, the slider provides plenty with which to play!
