ABOUT THIS BRACELET

Exquisite in every way, this breathtakingly beautiful and masterfully crafted late-Edwardian-/early-Art Deco bracelet is an extraordinary jewel. The centerpiece of this glorious adornment is a lustrous 10mm natural button pearl set within a decorative frame of glittering rose and Swiss-cut diamonds, pierced in a fashion that adds artistic negative space to the overall design. On each side are graduated links set with small diamonds centered by bezel-set diamonds, the four largest of which alone total 5.45 carats. The sides are engraved with a scroll, orange blossom, and stylized wheat pattern with millegrain edging adding the finishing detail to this magnificent treasure. Fit for a queen - you! By way of Vienna, Austria (circa 1923), according to the hallmarks. Total diamond weight 10.75. Hand fabricated in gleaming platinum, it measures 6 1/4 inches.

About Edwardian Jewelry

Edwardians took the dark beauty of Victorian jewelry and dyed it platinum blonde. Light and airy filigree, worked with intricate millegrain and detailed designs in that durable metal, was liberally set with the “white” stones—pearls and diamonds chief among them. The Victorians’ sense of whimsy and beloved yellow gold didn’t disappear completely, though, even as the Edwardian era made way for the further-streamlined Art Deco.

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.
