Lovely, Rhinestone, Victorian Chatelaine

This is a lovely little chain mail chatelaine. It is in the style of a 19th century belt-worn chatelaine. The estate where I purchased it verified that it was an antique- however, I am not an authenticator. (I do think that it is an antique.) It’s in very good condition. There is some missing chain mail where the clamshell top opens. It could also use some repair near the bottom to close the pouch. It’s lovely.
