Description
I am selling an assortment of vintage to antique jewelry and rings which I have hunted for and gathered from around the world. Please see my other offerings and thanks for stopping by!ABOUT:
Eye catching antique XL chunky solid silver bracelet that is gold washed with a warm rosy gold vermeil. The wide chain has overlapping links that are textured in some places for an accent. At one side is a floral decorated ball charm. I have a few other chains and antique charms that could be added so please see my other offerings. This is a really nice one in a substantial size. These are frequently silver with gold washed small highlights so it is a nice contrast to find one that presents as gold / is vermeil all over.
This would also be great to connect to other chains to create a necklace. It could also be used as a chatelaine or as a watch chain. Antique piece that I acquired in France in 800 solid silver which is the sterling standard there and then gold washed / vermeil.
MEASUREMENTS:
Chain is a little over 7.5 inches in length. The links are about 1/2 of an inch wide so a nice statement piece. It weighs about 25 grams of solid silver.
MARKS:
Loop of the charm is marked with a French silver smith hallmark, and the boar's head mark for solid silver items.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned with some age to them so they are in estate condition. You will notice that the clasp is attached to the ball charm. It has only the one clasp so the same clasp used to hold the ball charm to the bracelet is also the clasp to connect the two ends of the bracelet together. A second clasp could be added to one side if desired but selling it as is, as the large spring ring works well to connect the clasp to the bracelet and still allow room to close the bracelet by clasping it to the other loop. It is 100 years old or more so there is some surface wear and scratches. A little bit of loss to some of the vermeil where the underlying silver shows but it has a nice shine and patina. It is a beautiful statement piece. But Please note that due to age, this piece is not in mint condition.
