About the Item
This 22k gold coin bracelet features six British sovereigns in 10k gold surrounds connected with double loops and a spring ring clasp. The coins range in date from 1877 through 1900, each with the portrait of Queen Victoria at various stages of life. The coin contained the portrait of a teenaged Queen Victoria for over half a century (1838-1887) until it was updated in 1887 with a more mature portrait to coincide with the queen’s Golden Jubilee.
The portrait of the young queen can be seen on two of the coins (minted in 1877 and 1878). These portraits depict the queen with her hair in a bun; on the back of one coin is the image of St. George slaying a dragon and on the other is the monarch’s coat of arms. In 1878, a new portrait was introduced, which can be seen in the two center coins of the bracelet, which were both minted in 1891. This coin shows the queen with a small crown atop her head, and a slightly more detailed version of the St. George image on the back. However, the coin was met with disapproval and considered to be an inaccurate depiction of the queen, and was updated again in 1893, making it one of the shortest lived portraits on British coinage. The last two coins in the bracelet (minted in 1896 and 1900) contains the “Veiled Head” portrait, the final iteration of the coin.
This bracelet is like a chronological look back in history through these coins, and makes an interesting piece of jewelry for an Anglophile! The 22k gold of the coins has a beautiful glow, and the repeated circular coins have a lovely presence on the wrist. The coins are bezel set in 10k gold and held together by 10k gold loops that culminate in a spring ring clasp—a nice compliment to the circular loops and coins that the bracelet consists of. The imagery of the coins is richly detailed, and the coins alternate front and back so that a variety of imagery can be seen at all times. Both sides of each coin are visible in the bezel, and the bracelet can be worn with either side facing up.
Each coin acid tests as 22k gold. The loops, bezels, and spring rings are 10k gold, marked on the clasp. The bracelet also features a safety chain that can be unclipped. The bracelet measures 7”. Each coin is 15/16”. The bracelet weighs 59.8 grams and each coin weighs 7.9 grams.

View AllVictorian 14K Gold Cannetille Etruscan Revival Bracelet
Located in Venice, CA
A beautiful 14k yellow gold bracelet from the Etruscan Revival period, circa 1880. The bracelet is exquisitely hand-made and is a fine example of cannetille gold work, which is similar to filigree work with fine gold wires that curl around thinly hammered sheets. Cannetille gold work was inspired by embroidery and nature. The repeating curling designs on each segment of the bracelet are harmonious and elegant. The diamond shape of the segment has an oval decoration, framed with gold wirework, and inside this, there is a symmetrical curling design.
Each segment measures one inch and the bracelet, made up of six segments, is approximately seven inches. Each segment is hollow, and connected through thick gold links decorated with gold beads. The bracelet feels great when worn, and has a safety chain so that it doesn't fall off. The bracelet weighs a total of 18 grams and is in perfect condition. This bracelet displays the aesthetic tastes of an era of nostalgia and romance.
Etruscan Revival jewelry has a rich and interesting history. In the early 1800s there was a large excavation of Etruscan tombs outside of Rome. Within these tombs were pieces of original Etruscan jewelry. The Etruscans were master artisans, they created breathtaking pieces of jewelry through their use of gold wirework and granulation, colored gemstones and glass. The news of the excavation of these tombs, and the treasures contained inside them, spread throughout Europe. Etruscan style jewelry...
