This chatelaine watch shows the stylistic evolution of this type of piece during the1930s. This watchmaking accessory, made of yellow gold, is typified by its geometric decoration. The chatelaine’s fastening and the case concealing the dial take the form of faceted spheres joined by a link chain. Some examples have a highly polished yellow gold finish, while others are adorned with star-set precious stones—rubies, sapphires, and diamonds.
