Watch chains have been around since the 16th century, but it was during the Victorian period that the Albert watch chain, named after Prince Albert, became all the rage. Traditionally, these chains featured a T-bar on one end to affix the chain to a vest buttonhole, reflecting the shape of a letter 'T'. Sometimes, the T-bar slid along the length of the chain, offering versatility for different jackets or waistcoats.
Prince Albert's impact on Victorian society, culture, and art was profound. His innovations spurred industrial development, leading to the production of many everyday items that often dangled from these chains. Think monogrammed medallions, sovereign cases, charms, compasses, pencils, lockets, vestas, and emblems—all adorned the Albert chain. The Victorians knew how to accessorize, whether for mourning, romance, or pure decoration.
Stephanie Windsor blends a love of Victorian history into her designs. We transform the Victorian watch chain into a versatile accessory for today's trendsetters. We love layering our chains, creating stand-out statement pieces that keep the past stylishly present. In the words of Oscar Wilde, “You can never be overdressed or overeducated.”
