About the Item

This antique bracelet is a stunning example of fine craftsmanship from a bygone era, likely dating from the late 19th to early 20th century. The bracelet is crafted from 14 karat gold, known for its durability and warm, rich color, which has developed a subtle patina over time. The centerpiece of the bracelet is a large, oval-shaped garnet, expertly cut in the rose-cut style. This cut, characterized by its flat base and domed, faceted top, is designed to maximize the stone's brilliance and depth of color. The garnet is a deep, rich red with flashes of lighter hues that catch the light beautifully, adding a touch of vibrant color to the piece. Garnets were popular gemstones in antique jewelry, often associated with love, passion, and protection. The bracelet features two hinged sections that frame the central garnet. These hinged parts are not only functional, allowing the bracelet to open and close easily, but they are also beautifully decorated. Each hinged section is adorned with intricately engraved floral motifs, adding a delicate and feminine touch to the overall design. The floral engravings are detailed, showcasing the high level of craftsmanship involved in creating this piece. The band of the bracelet is finely made, composed of thin gold that has been meticulously worked to create a smooth, even surface. The engraving on the band complements the floral motifs on the hinged sections, continuing the theme of nature and elegance. The gold has a satin finish, giving it a soft, matte appearance that contrasts subtly with the polished garnet, creating a harmonious balance between the two elements. The satin finish also adds to the bracelet's sophisticated and understated elegance. The bracelet weighs 19.2 grams, giving it a substantial feel without being too heavy. This weight reflects the quality of the gold and the craftsmanship involved in its creation, ensuring that it is both durable and comfortable to wear. The bracelet is designed to fit comfortably around the wrist. The exact dimensions of the bracelet would typically suit a medium-sized wrist, though it might have some adjustability. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, bracelets like this were popular accessories, often worn by women as part of their everyday or evening attire. The use of garnet as the central stone suggests that this bracelet might have been intended for a special occasion or as a sentimental piece, possibly even given as a gift to symbolize love or friendship. The bracelet is in excellent condition, particularly given its age. The garnet is securely set, with no visible chips or scratches, and the gold retains its satin finish with only minor signs of wear consistent with its age. The hinges operate smoothly, ensuring that the bracelet is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The engravings remain sharp and well-defined, a testament to the quality of the work.
