This Gorgeous Antique Bangle
Bracelet is without doubt the Best Quality
and it is very rare to find one in such Superb condition! The attention to
detail is extraordinary and just magnificent especially given this was all
achieved by hand. The top features a magnificent design comprised of flowers
and foliage accented with intricate detailing and framing a RARE
Blank Cartouche at the centre ready for engraving with a monogram or name. I’ll
let the pictures provide the best description.
The back is plain and smooth. The
sides are slightly curved, meeting with a crisp edge for a comfortable fit.
This really does exude Quality.
This “hidden hinge” bangle’s hinge
& clasp function perfectly. It opens to reveal an internal sliding bar
preventing damage to the hinge & also acting as a safety feature.
COLOUR
The gold has a
warm rose hue typical of antique jewellery of the era, not that coppery pink of
today’s new jewellery.

OVERALL
Better-than-Excellent Antique condition!
There are no dents, damage or repairs to mention and no obvious wear to the
gold surface. It presents beautifully with the gold so pristine with that silky
smooth feel usually only associated with solid gold. This is not to be missed and
I’m sure you’ll love it as the photos do not do justice to it at all.
