Edwardian Seed Pearl Gold Necklace

This delicate wedding necklace from the 1880s is so lovely, it's perfectly balanced with tiny pearls in a gold setting. I've never encountered this kind of clasp before, but it's very handy—it's a spring ring meets trombone situation. This is marked 14k on the clasp, and 14k on the back of the dangliest bit. It also has hallmarks that we have been unable to identify, but the assay anchor mark indicates its from Birmingham, and the date range is 1875-1890. Please note this...
