This Outstanding bangle is an outstanding example of Haywards
quality and design and is a revival piece of the early 1900s, which was popular
in the 1940s or so.
It features a beautifully chased design of foliate flourishes
framing the blank cartouche and reaching from clasp to hinge. This is truly
like a work of art and needs to be seen in person to be appreciated. The back
is plain and smooth.
The hinge and clasp are in perfect working order and the
original safety chain is in place.
This bangle bracelet has a wonderful shiny hue and the silky
feel of quality sterling silver. It has a lacquered finish which prevents
tarnish and makes it super shiny.

OVERALL
This bangle is in Better-than-Excellent
Antique condition. I believe this was rarely worn due to the minimal
surface scratching typical on all jewellery that has been used. Bangles in this
fabulous condition are difficult to come by. This is of Heirloom Quality and
would make a fantastic addition to any jewellery collection. You will be
thrilled!
