The snakes are superimposed on an a dark blue, guilloché enamel, tapering hinged bangle, mounted in gold, English, circa 1850, in a double door case. In Victorian symbolism the coiled snake represented eternal love. This bangle has no Hallmarks. This was common in Victorian British jewellery, particularly for items made in both gold and silver.
