About the Item
Exquisite vintage Straits Chinese cuff bracelet, likely crafted in Bali, is a stunning example of skilled silversmithing from the early to mid-20th century. The bracelet features meticulous craftsmanship with intricate Etruscan-style wirework and granulation, creating a rich texture and depth that highlight the artisan’s mastery.
At the heart of the design is a beautiful tiger eye cabochon, surrounded by four delicately sculpted snakes on each side. The snakes, a common motif in Straits Chinese jewelry, add a symbolic touch to the piece. Additional small cat’s eye stones further enhance the bracelet’s allure, reflecting light with their captivating sheen.
Craftsmanship and Materials:
900 Silver: A high-quality silver alloy with 90% silver content, prized for its durability and luster.
Tiger Eye Stone: Known for its captivating golden-brown color and chatoyancy.
Cat’s Eye Stones: Small, luminescent stones flanking the central tiger eye, adding a unique and sophisticated touch.
Intricate Design: The bracelet showcases expert Etruscan-style wirework and granulation, techniques requiring hours of skilled labor to create.
Historical and Cultural Context: This bracelet reflects the rich cultural fusion of the Straits Chinese artisans who settled in Southeast Asia during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Drawing from both Chinese and local Southeast Asian influences, these silversmiths produced rare and beautifully detailed pieces, often featuring symbolic motifs and skilled metalwork. This particular bracelet, marked “Bali 900” on the reverse, was likely made by Chinese artisans in Bali, blending local silversmithing traditions with traditional Chinese designs.
Dimensions and Condition:
Inner Length: 5 inches
Max Width: 1 1/2 inches (center)
Weight: 30 grams
Condition: Given its age, the bracelet remains in excellent vintage condition with a charming aged patina that enhances its character. There are a few tiny missing granulation balls that are hardly noticeable unless inspected closely, adding to its authenticity and vintage appeal.
This rare and unique bracelet is a testament to the artistry of Straits Chinese silversmiths and is a must-have for collectors of vintage Southeast Asian jewelry. Its timeless design, combined with its cultural and historical significance, makes it a standout piece for any jewelry collection.
