Gold Herringbone Flat-Link Necklace or Bracelet

This item is a flat-link precious metal jewelry piece, specifically a 'herringbone' style chain, likely composed of yellow gold or a gold-toned alloy. The chain features a sleek, fluid construction where flat, slanted rectangular links are interwoven closely together to create a smooth, ribbon-like texture that lays flat against the skin. The item exhibits a high-polish mirror finish, though the image shows some visible surface scuffing and light scratches consistent with regular wear. Due to the angle, a potential hallmark or fineness stamp appears faintly near the terminal end, though it is not legible from this distance. The construction is typical of late 20th-century jewelry, popular from the 1980s through the 1990s. Notable condition issues include minor 'kinking' or a slight bend in the chain's structural alignment, which is a common vulnerability for this specific weave. The craftsmanship appears to be of standard commercial quality with a uniform width and consistent link density throughout the visible portion.
