ABOUT THIS BRACELET

Bangles go way back. In 1973, a 4,500-year-old statue of a teenage girl--called the "Dancing Girl"--was discovered in an archaeological site in Pakistan. She was nude, adorned only with an armful of bracelets. And while we are not suggested that you strut around in the buff wearing nothing but jewelry, more bangles is always a good thing. This chic Victorian era beauty of brightly burnished 18K gold pops with color and sparkle courtesy of a 1.06 carat raspberry-red cabochon ruby accented on each side by glimmering rose-cut diamonds, all in sleek bezel settings. The fancy openwork galleries add a contrasting flourish to this always in vogue jewel. Total diamond weight, .45 carat. Measures 6 3/4 Inch. Condition note: back half of bracelet has some ripple marks.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

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.
