It is my pleasure to offer this Striking Antique Vintage Victorian
Revival Bangle Bracelet. Although it is Vintage dating to around the 1940s, its
design replicates those Antique designs popular some 40-50 years earlier.
Each side is etched with a beautiful floral, foliate &
geometrical design set amid a richly textured background which sets it off
superbly and catches the light at every turn. The faces are superbly domed and
the rib at the edge frames it superbly.
The box & tongue clasp clicks closed securely and the hinge
functions perfectly with a safety chain offering additional security.
This bangle bracelet has a wonderful buttery yellow gold hue and that silky smooth feel usually only
associated with solid carat gold.
