About the Item

Art Deco diamond and synthetic ruby odeonesque concealed bracelet and cocktail watch in 19.2kt yellow gold and platinum, signed Titus, Portugal, 1940s. This exquisite piece boasts a dual identity, seamlessly merging the allure of fine jewelry with the practicality of a timepiece. Fashioned as an open cuff bangle bracelet in polished yellow gold, the odeonesque top is adorned with a mesmerizing display of single-cut diamonds and channel-set synthetic rubies of a vivid purplish-red color, evoking the opulence of the era. The distinctive odeonesque design, characterized by tiers of gemstones reminiscent of tiered seating in music and picture halls, adds a touch of vintage glamour to this exceptional piece. At its heart lies a remarkable secret: concealed within the hinged central ruby section is a rectangular manual-winding mechanical watch signed by Titus with Arabic numerals at the cardinal points and blued steel hands. Ingeniously designed, this hidden timepiece can be revealed with a simple touch of a button, adding a delightful element of surprise to its wearer. Odeonesque jewels, named after the tiered seating structures found in entertainment venues, gained popularity across Europe from the 1910s onwards for their captivating aesthetics and architectural inspiration. Experience the enchantment of a bygone era with this remarkable bangle bracelet, where beauty and functionality converge in perfect harmony.
