For this type of enameled chain necklace? The enameling is on both sides of the necklace. I tried searching enameled necklace, enameled chain necklace, enameled link necklace and a couple of others, but didn't come up with anything. TIA

Pretty chain .
Although it might not answer your question completely , I had a similliar enameled chain not to long ago . The consensus was split on whether it was a early 20 th century guilloche watch chain or a later Chinese Export chain . Maybe yours is one of those ? Maybe not ?
I wish I understood how to link a post for you but shamefully I don't understand yet . If you look back to page 10 you can see my thread titled " Cloisonné Bird enamel chain " . It may be of interest to you .
Love be the color on yours . It almost has an ombré look of honey and tea . Beautiful !

Thanks Mermaid. I am more than sure that this is not early 20th century, but probably in the last 20 years or so. I was just wondering if there was a specific name. Yeah, I fell in love with the color too. I'll see if I can find your thread. Thanks again.

Found the thread. I'm sure mine isn't any where near as old as those chains. I had to LOL when I saw the cloisonne pendant on your chain. My first thought when I saw this chain was "wouldn't a nice pendant look beautiful on this. But the more I handle it the more I'm liking it just the way it is. Thanks again.

I found some similar necklaces using "Antique Enamel Link Chain". I only used Antique because I knew I would not find much if I did not. That being said, I found other keywords "Longchain" and "Baton" used for similar items.

I'm pretty familiar with chain types but haven't seen this one. For keywords, I'd use something like, "Unique Elongated Diamond-Shaped Double-Sided Enamel Chain in Autumn Colors." That's a pretty one!

I'm thinking you could even call it a Navette chain? It's sort of shaped like one.
