Wear this antique rolo (aka belcher) longuard chain as a versatile double strand or triple strand necklace with dog clip clasp. 

Guard chains were popular in the Victorian era and women would wear them in various configurations, across and around the body. This one retains its slider component which gives you even more variation!

This piece has a bonus 2.5 inch accessory chain with jump ring waiting for your customization - add a charm or maybe an extra dog clip?
