Description:
A Victorian mourning bracelet from the late 1800s (dated 1879) that features an Etruscan* design with a shiny gold rectangular front. The front black panel appears to be Onyx and has a small pearl in the center.
It is hinged in the back, and the ends overlap. This antique bracelet expands at the hinge to be worn and then closes onto the wrist.
Note that the black enamel/paint on the bracelet has much wear. See photos and video. While rectangle panel in the front is in nice antique condition, the remainder of the bracelet has missing black laquer/paint throughout.
*Etruscan revival jewelry was inspired by archaeological digs in Italy in the second half of the 19th century. This type of jewelry was especially popular during a revival in the Etruscan style that took place in the 1860s‑1870s.
Measurements:
This unique vintage bracelet measures 2 5/8" x 2 1/4" closed. When opened, it will fit up to an approximate 7" wrist - it is for a medium sized wrist. Mine is 6 3/4'' (see last photo) and the bracelet fits nicely.
Weighs:
The bracelet weighs 20.6 grams
Condition:
The antique bracelet is in fair antique condition for being over 100 years old. Some light use marks, solder, tarnish, and wear commensurate with antique age - see photos for detail. Hinge works well. Many areas of wear on the bracelet with missing black paint/enamel. The front rectangular piece is in nice condition.
