This Vintage “Antique” 12 Carat Yellow Gold Filled Cuff Bangle
Bracelet is Outstanding! It is a quality piece from a renowned maker
established around 120 years ago. Its Antique inspired design is
reminiscent of the mid-Victorian era but is newer dating to around the 1920 and
30s, a Victorian Revival period for jewellery.
Scrolling across each side is an array chrysanthemum and Forget-Me-Not-like
flowers in various sizes with foliage, all intricately detailed and set upon a
richly patterned background. It is superbly accented with black enamel-like
detailing and with domed sides, it is very substantial.
The hinge and clasp are in perfect working order with a safety
chain for additional security. It closes securely with a snap.
This bangle bracelet has a wonderful warm yellow gold hue and
that silky smooth feel usually only associated with solid carat gold.
