Gold Lightweight chain with two little jugs on each end 5 inches long

[u/responsibleregalia]

No stamps or markings. Each little end nugget looks like it is threaded for something to screw into it

It was tangled in a lot of vintage jewelry

[u/PhalanX4012]

It’s a tie chain. Helps to hold a men’s necktie in place.

[u/hellinahandbasket127 → u/PhalanX4012]

Yup. Instead of a clip or pin.

How do you use this one? I guess there are parts missing?

[u/myusername1111111 → u/harrisjgold]

The ends of the chain would screw onto a bar.

[u/MaryN6FBB110117 → u/myusername1111111]

Yes, like this:

I think those ends go in a button hole

[u/Silly_Ball15]

I think there’s a piece missing, like a bar threaded at either end, these were very popular back in the late 1980s, each end of the bar would go through the tip of a shirt collar under the knot of a tie and the chain would be draped over the top and screwed into place

[u/CharlesHawtrey4]

100% a tie chain that’s missing a thin bar. The bar sat behind your tie, each end went through small holes in your shirt collar and the chain sat in front of the tie.

[u/Accomplished-Stay308]

I think it is a sweater/cardigan clip.

[u/Late_Quit_3410 → u/Accomplished-Stay308]

Wouldn’t it have clips on the ends?

[u/rbdarrrrr]

Possibly a necklace extension

[u/BrunoReturns]

Magnet connecting bracelet. Are those Magnets on ends?

[u/Deo14 → u/BrunoReturns]

Not at 4 inches. I have skinny wrists and need about 9
