A dynamic chrome metal and plastic Space Age cuff, French, 1970s

About the Item

A very unusual, highly dynamic and most striking design makes this chrome metal bangle immediately eye catching, and a true conversation piece. The main body of this piece is a chromed bangle, showing some signs of a very soft gilding around the spheres, which is crowned with two split 'spheres', one of grey green/black back to back cabuchons, the second of grey green/grey back to back cabuchons, both divided by a chrome ring. A third piece sits at one end, a single transparent emerald green cabuchon, framed in a chrome ring. It bears no marks or signature, but is of very high quality, with some minor wear to the chrome and surface scratches, consumate with its age, on overall very good vintage condition.
