Description: | Cast cu-alloy chateleine or purse bar dating from the 18th century. The purse bar is complete, but the the semi-circular bar is missing except for the two terminals which are still attached to either side of the purse bar. The purse bar is not a solid bar, but is composed of two loops with scrollworks either end and central scallop or palmette ornament. These floral/scrollwork ornaments are typical of 18th and early 19th century metalwork.
