This Vintage “Antique” 12 Carat Yellow
Gold Filled 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 the 1920 and 30s, the Victorian Revival period.
Scrolling all the way around the
bangle is an array chrysanthemum-like flowers in various sizes with foliage,
all intricately detailed and set upon a stippled background. It is superbly
accented with black enamel-like detailing and with flat 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.
