About the Item
This exquisite pair of handcrafted silver bracelets, created by artist and master engraver Ilya Schor in New York in 1950, were designed as part of a bridal dowry. Featuring intricate openwork and masterful engraving, the bracelets depict the legendary "Wild Bird of the Queen of Sheba" motif, symbolizing beauty, wisdom, and divine protection. Each panel is adorned with elaborate floral and avian imagery, demonstrating Schor’s signature folk-art-inspired craftsmanship, influenced by Jewish and Eastern European artistic traditions. These rare and historically significant pieces reflect the artist’s dedication to storytelling through metalwork, blending myth, culture, and fine artistry into wearable heirlooms.
