Arts & Crafts Hammered Silver & Carved Coral Art Nouveau Bangle in Original Box

A gorgeous and rare Arts & Crafts silver & genuine marine coral bracelet, in its original box! Superb workmanship and SO of the period; features a hammered silver bangle style bracelet with a completely hand worked silver leaf base with a hand carved coral floral piece.

The colour of the coral is incredible, so saturated, a really deep salmon pink. No marks, tested as silver. Measurements: inner circumference is approx 6.5, so suitable for a slender wrist. The coral display (including silver leafed base) is 28mm by 17mm. The bangle itself is only 3mm deep, so very narrow.

Weight of bracelet: 10.74gms. To open, you need to push the bangle together until the under leaf comes out and unhooks from the other side of the bangle with the coral on.

Then to fasten, just hook it back on. Very innovative for the period.

The bracelet is presented in its original period box for a Bradford jewellers, in great condition with fastening clasp. In good antique condition; bangle is slightly misshapen, commensurate with being an antique slimline piece that has been worn. Never seen another piece like this, one of a kind. Please see all the photos to appreciate this spectacular originally boxed and presented Arts & Crafts bracelet.
