Victorian Gold Turquoise Bracelet This ornate Victorian bracelet, from around 1880, is a testament to the era’s exquisite craftsmanship.
The design features alternating links, some highly decorative and intricately detailed, others smooth and round, creating a visually appealing contrast. The focal point is the tongue and box clasp, not only a secure fastening mechanism but also a beautiful element in itself. A vibrant turquoise cabochon is nestled within a star-shaped setting on the clasp, adding a touch of colour and celestial charm.
Tested as 9ct gold, the bracelet boasts a warm, rich tone that speaks to its age and quality. Measuring 20cm (8 inches) in length and 9mm (1/4 inch) in width, this substantial bracelet comfortably fits a larger wrist. Weighing 21.9 grams, it has a pleasing weight, further emphasising its luxurious feel.
This stylish and well-preserved piece is a beautiful example of Victorian jewellery, perfect for adding a touch of antique elegance to any ensemble. C.1880. Ref: JR051
