Pair of Sterling Silver Box Link Necklaces

This item consists of two individual necklaces, both crafted in a classic Venetian or 'box link' style. These chains are characterized by their square-shaped links which are interconnected to create a smooth, four-sided geometric appearance. The chains appear to be made of sterling silver, exhibiting a bright white metallic luster typical of high-polished .925 silver. The necklace on the left features a traditional circular spring ring clasp, while the necklace on the right is equipped with a modern lobster claw clasp, suggesting they may have been manufactured at different times or by different makers. The box links are fine in gauge, likely measuring between 0.8mm and 1.2mm in width, making them suitable for lightweight pendants. In terms of condition, both chains show minor surface wear consistent with light use; there are no obvious kinks, broken links, or significant tarnishing visible in the current lighting. The lobster clasp on the right-hand chain appears to have a hallmark stamp on the tab, though the specific '925' or maker's mark is not legible at this resolution. These are contemporary pieces, likely dating from the late 20th century to the present, prized for their strength-to-weight ratio and timeless aesthetic. The construction indicates machine-made precision, providing a uniform and flexible drape.
