This 9K gold T-bar came from a chunky antique watch chain I'd originally bought to wear as a choker. (For the history nerds: The T-Bar was at one end of the chain, originally it would have gone through a button hole of a vest to provide security while the pocket watch was attached to the opposite end of the chain with a larger clip, and then the watch tucked into the pocket). This is a perfect example of why I love jewelry so much - it is infinitely recyclable. I took the original watch chain apart and was using the clasp on another piece but this bar didn't have a place yet. Finally it clicked! A perfect example of the KISS rule - Simple, minimalist, very cool.
