A beautifully preserved Victorian bracelet crafted in 18K yellow gold, combining dramatic black enamel with the soft luster of natural half pearls.
The bracelet is composed of six curved gold panels, each centered by a black enamel medallion accented with three natural half pearls and surrounded by an engraved oval border. The contrast of rich yellow gold, deep black enamel and luminous pearls creates a striking design with the ornamental detail characteristic of 19th-century jewelry.
The articulated panel construction allows the bracelet to curve gracefully around the wrist, while a concealed flat box clasp maintains the continuity of the design. An attached safety chain provides additional security.
Measuring approximately 7.0 inches long, the bracelet has substantial visual presence while remaining elegant and wearable. Minor dents consistent with its age are present and do not detract from the overall beauty of the jewel.
A distinctive example of Victorian enamel and pearl jewelry, this bracelet combines antique craftsmanship, natural pearls and bold graphic contrast in a design that remains remarkably wearable today.
This is a one-of-a-kind estate jewel. Once sold, this exact bracelet will no longer be available.
