Plique à Jour Peacock Bracelet, Chinese, Translucent Enamel Bangle

About the Item

Plique à Jour Peacock Bracelet, Chinese, Translucent Enamel Bangle; Turquoise Blue and Apple Green with Raspberry Pink accents. Plique à Jour is a French term which means "open to light". The translucent enamel has a stained-glass effect. The enamels are held in place by soldering small golden brass strips to eachother. This is different from cloisonnè because the technique doesn't involve a supporting surface but the design is as intricate and lovely. The background design reminds me of fish scales. Please see photo. One of the peacocks is chipped! There are 3 long feathered Peacock motifs around the circumference of the Art Nouveau bracelet. Also, there are, what appear to my eye to be 3 small butterfly accents in between each peacock. There is a contrast in texture because the enamel used in the body of the peacock is not transparent, while the rest of the design can have a light shining through it. The background design is reminiscent of fish scales. Measurements: 5/8" wide 2 1/2" across 8" Circumference (on the inside) Look at the photos carefully. If you have any questions about color or condition, please send me a message =) Rachel

Looks so pretty in person and one of my personal favorites because the green is so uncommon to find. The contrast of the green with the copper hue is quite stunning as well as the contrasting textures in the undulating chain look with the smooth arched copper tile. This is quite a unique manufacturer. This type of Arts and Crafts style jewelry...
