This sterling silver Irish Claddagh necklace measures 18.50". Length, straight down the center, from clasp to end of pendant is 9.25". I've not polished this piece but will leave this up to the discretion of its new owner.
As seen in the third photo (Please use the zoom function.), the pendant is stamped with what looks like RIL, another unidentifiable mark, 925 and scales with 925 in the center. According to London's Assay Office:
The Convention on the Control and Marking of Articles of Precious Metals (known as the Hallmarking Convention) is an
international treaty between Contracting States, which aims to eliminate trade barriers in the cross-border trade of precious
metal articles.
Signed in Vienna on 15 November 1972, the Convention came into force in 1975. Its text was mainly drafted and negotiated in
Geneva and London, and Goldsmiths’ Hall is widely considered the Convention’s ‘birth place’.
The UK has been a signatory to the International Convention on Hallmarks since its inception 1972.
