Leitão & Irmão Victorian Tourmaline Diamond Pearl Bracelet Gold Silver, 1890s

About the Item

Leitão & Irmão Victorian Green Tourmaline, Diamond and Natural Pearl Bracelet in Rose Gold and Silver, Portugal, c. 1890. This superb bracelet of baroque inspiration by Portuguese crown jeweler Leitão & Irmão is composed of a sequence of four openwork panels embellished with floral and scrolled motifs, each featuring a large circular-shape greenish-blue tourmaline to the centre surrounded by four Old Mine-cut diamonds collet-set in silver. Each plaque is connected to the next through a double fleur-de-lis link accented with a natural pearl. The bracelet is doubly secured with a click-shut clasp and a safety chain fitting. Portuguese assay mark “Cabeça de Tigre II” (used 1887-1937) for gold 800‰ and “Uma Cabeça de Javali II” (used 1887-1937) for silver 833‰, maker’s mark for Leitão e Irmão. Dimensions: 16.5cm. Gross weight: 59.6g. Owing its origins to the late 18th century, Leitão & Irmão is one of the oldest and most prestigious jewelers in Portugal and the world. Making their mark in the Portuguese empire with their works of rare beauty and refinement, they were granted the title of “Crown Jewelers” in 1887, recognizing their role in creating gifts for family, friends and personalities of the royal family. This item is in good condition, with marks and scratches consistent with general age and wear. Antique, period and vintage pieces, both signed and unsigned, are being offered as worn. Unless otherwise stated, all weights and quality factors have been graded as mounting permitted and using classic gemology and standard gemological equipment.
