Ancient Sensuality - Victorian Etruscan Revival 10K Rose Gold Garnet Snake Bracelets (VICB004)
Rarities Antique Jewelry
Ancient Sensuality - Victorian Etruscan Revival 10K Rose Gold Garnet Snake Bracelets. These bracelets are superb. I see these from time to time sold singly, however I was lucky enough to find a pair. Over the years these type of bracelets are split up and given to children or grandchildren. These beautiful bracelets are made of 10K solid rose gold (tested) and gold fill. The rigid bangle part is made of gold fill and flexible. Gold fill was often used in Victorian jewellery , the gold is very thick not like modern day gold plate. The gold fill of the Victorian era was made to last. As you can see on this bracelet, the gold fill is still very bright and shiny. The ends of this bracelet have been tested 10k solid rose gold, the beautiful foil backed garnets are genuine. The garnets have a gorgeous deep red wine colour and full of sparkle when the light reflects off of them. The beautiful rose gold is formed in a design of snakes, however these snakes are somewhat abstract and very elegant with the jewelled garnets. These stunning bracelets are adjustable in size , however fits a wrist no larger than 6 1/2 inches the best. To own a pair of beautiful bracelets such as these would make a wonderful addition to your jewellery collection.
