What a Beautiful Bangle Bracelet of solid, quality English
construction! With a warm yellow gold hue, this pretty bangle bracelet features
a stylized floral & foliate design set within the plain bands, reaching to
clasp and hinge. The delicate diamond cut detailing to the background really
makes the design stand out and catches the light at every turn.
The back and the interior are plain and smooth. The hinge opens
& closes smoothly and the clasp clicks shut securely. There is absolutely no way this one will fall
off! The original safety chain is in
situ for added security.
This has a metal core; bracelets with a metal core are
constructed with a shell of 9 carat gold
(usually up to 4 times the thickness of standard rolled gold/Gold Filled)
bonded to a jeweller’s alloy or metal core.
Bangles with a metal core wear so much better than bangles of solid gold
as the metal core provides solidity and strength to the construction. They were known to come with a warranty of 20
years and longer against tarnishing and wear, their quality is Outstanding.
It has the
silky smooth feel associated with solid carat gold and expected of quality
antique jewellery. It has a warm, yellow hue and is so much nicer than
the pictures suggest.
