19th C. Nickel Silver Métal Extra Blanc French Adjustable Book Chain Dog Collar

About the Item

An impressive antique white metal or nickel silver adjustable book chain linked collar, probably from a posh French 'Chateau' dog. Measures: 49cm (19,3") long, adjustable in 7 holes from 48cm (18.9") to 37cm (14.6") circumference This antique item would be a perfect addition for an antique dog collar collection. But it could easily be used as dog collar again, it is still very functional and solid. Or if you like, it is very wearable as a necklace. The silver-plating of metal was performed under the high voltage (galvanic approach) using "métal blanc" (white metal) or "métal ordinaire" (ordinary metal), or more expensive "métal extra-blanc" (extra-white metal) for higher quality products. Like for this collar as marked in French on the collar "MÉTAL EXTRA BLANC'. Métal extra-blanc corresponds to an alloy with the higher content of nickel, still under 12 % (low-quality nickel silver).
