This Victorian diamond and pearl hinged bracelet is crafted in 18k yellow gold and reflects the refined design language of late nineteenth century jewelry. The bracelet features a repeating floral motif across the top, formed by pearls arranged as petals surrounding old mine cut diamonds at the center of each flower. Two rows of graduated pearls extend between the floral elements. The old mine cut diamonds display the soft brilliance associated with antique diamond cutting and provide contrast against the luster of the pearls and the warm tone of the gold.
The bracelet is constructed as a hinged bangle with a clasp closure, a typical feature of Victorian bracelets designed for both security and ease of wear. It has an inner circumference of 6.5 inches and a width of 5/8 inch, giving the bracelet a strong presence on the wrist while maintaining a classic profile. The bracelet weighs 28.8 grams and is stamped 18k.
