A guide for this piece: about $660, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.

The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.

With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

Crossing bands, a fine chain and a divided-oval link form this Hermès Chaîne d'Ancre Chaos ring.

The Piece

The description records reference H222622B, 750 pink gold, Japanese size 9.0 with 50 in parentheses, and 0.1 ct of diamonds. Maximum width is precisely recorded as 19.9 mm, not a newly measured 2 cm. The 6.4 g mass is also historical. Photographs show the front, reverse, inner bands and a hand display; the broad open arrangement makes fit more specific than the nominal size alone. Robert Dumas designed the Chaîne d'Ancre bracelet in 1938, inspired by a ship's anchor chain. Its divided oval links became a design vocabulary used beyond the original bracelet. That model history does not date the present example, establish its manufacturing country or prove a continuous ownership history.

Condition

Grade A following expressly recorded refinishing. Fine unrecorded scratches or soiling may remain. Examine the fine chain, the stone settings and the crossing bands together; present fit, setting security and any later alteration have not been independently checked. See Japanese condition ranks for grading context.

Authenticity & Care

Have a qualified jeweller inspect the stones and settings before wear. Ultrasonic vibration can loosen stones, so avoid home ultrasonic or steam cleaning while treatment and repair history remain unknown. Keep the gold alloy away from chlorine bleach and household cleaners. A diamond description is not independent laboratory grading, proof of origin or a secure-setting assurance.
