Each link is a <i>braided </i>ring<i>...</i>but I cannot tell how many strands make up the braid, nor is the strand material obvious; I don&#039;t think it&#039;s a synthetic.</p><p><br /></p><p>The end-clips aren&#039;t identical...and as far as I can see they&#039;re unmarked; probably brass.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t recall with certainty when or where they became mine...decades ago, in California, perhaps. I didn&#039;t look closely at it until recently, an&#039; was appropriately amazed at the amount of skill and effort represented by this chain. It was purpose-made for some function; those clips are nothing I&#039;ve ever seen, and my imagination is feeble before the possibilities.</p><p><br /></p><p>Y&#039;all will surely illuminate this mystery...an&#039; thanks for lookin&#039;!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]423932[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]423934[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]423935[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]423936[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
