ABOUT THIS BRACELET

From one of the earliest and most important goldsmiths of the Arts & Crafts Movement, Frank Gardener Hale, this delightful bracelet beautifully represents the movement's philosophy of pushing away from the prevailing method of mechanized jewelry production during the late-18th and early-19th centuries to, instead, place the focus on artisan-crafted works of wearable art. Hand fabricated in brightly burnished 18K gold, decorative openwork links alternate with Baroque freshwater water pearls creating a distinctive, charming, and easy-to-wear with anything collectable. The clasp is marked with "F.G. Hale," and is seamlessly integrated, allowing an uninterrupted design pattern. Measures 3/8 by just under 6 7/8 inches.

About Art Nouveau Jewelry

Looking to go organic? Bummed out (with good reason) by the Industrial Revolution, Art Nouveau makers embraced the natural world and a return to the hand-craftsmanship of an earlier time. Their overlap with both the Victorian and Edwardian eras resulted in a great deal of cross-pollination. Though relatively short in its purest form, Art Nouveau’s flowing lines continued to weave their way into fine jewelry.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
