Edwardian "Dog Collar" Choker With Sterling Silver & Paste Stones

Edwardian Dog Collar     Circa. 1905       American

Black velvet ribbon (new replacement) with sterling silver round buckle embedded with round paste stones.   Original slide catch which also has round paste stones    Slide marked "sterling"  

Please note:  We have left the sterling tarnished as we appreciate the "gun metal patina" look    It certainly can be hand polished to a brilliant finish.   Also:  the round paste stones are all there.   A few stones are dark so the photo does not show them well.   6.5 g.    4.2 dwt

The ribbon measures 15 1/4 inches.   The width is 5/8  inch   The buckle is 3/4  inch in diameter.

All in excellent condition
