BEST Antique Edwardian 12ct Rose Gold GF Fancy FAUX AMETHYST Bangle Bracelet

The amethyst stone was very fashionable throughout the Victorian era. It was believed to possess the power to protect the wearer and bring good luck. It also means “Freedom from passion and care”. Luckily for those born in February, this is their birthstone.

WOW! Rarely so I have the pleasure to present a bangle with such exquisite design and stylingAND IN NEAR NEW CONDITION. IT REALLY IS VERY RARE. It is Stunning however this does not comes across in the pictures. It is Imposing with the top adorned with a fancy inset framework border accented by scroll and fleur-de-lys motifs framing a LARGE Amethyst Purple paste stone – its colour is vibrant and dazzling!

The back is plain and smooth. This is a “hidden hinge” bangle with the push button clasp and hinge in perfect working order.

It has the silky smooth feel usually only associated with solid carat gold and expected of quality antique jewellery. The body of the bangle has a warm rose gold hue while the filigree/metal has a yellow Antique hue so much nicer than the pictures suggest. The contrast is beautiful and complementary.
