Need help identifying this Gorham silver piece

Postby tnbelles » Tue Oct 23, 2007 9:34 pm

Hi -

This piece of Gorham sterling silver has me stumped. Measures 2-1/2" long. Bookmark? Money clip? Napkin clip? Unsure of age. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
It is a chatelaine, there is an entry on the term in our silver glossary

Since only the anchor mark appears, I believe this item is not sterling.
