Retro 18k Gold and Blue & Green Enamel Flexible-Link Bracelet, circa 1960s

  

RETRO 18K GOLD AND ENAMEL FLEXIBLE-LINK BRACELET. A finely crafted work of art, this intricate flexible-link bracelet is an incredibly fun and playful statement piece. Each link is individually cast and is interlocked in an array that allows it to twist and shift in a silky snake-like movement.

The incredibly high quality enamel work is notable, the body made up with an array of squares decorated with cobalt blue and translucent green framed in gold. A cleverly hidden push button finished with blue enamel is slightly upraised from the rest, allowing you to depress the pressure-tongue and release it from the box-clasp. Beside this a 14k safety chain was added at some point. Composition: 18 Karat Yellow Gold.

All items are rigorously tested for metal content. Dimensions: 6 5/8" wearable length x 11/16" wide x 3/8 high.

Total Weight: 81.1 grams. Condition notes: Fine vintage condition, minor wear to clasp; enamel in very fine condition with no flaws. 14k safety chain was added to the bracelet at some point. Our company has long specialized in sculpture circa 1860 through 1930 and as such the gallery always has a very large collection of exceptional European and American sculpture available on display. The gallery is located at 117 W Burd Street in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania and is open by appointment only.

We welcome your visit and would love to meet with you. All packaging is handled by our staff and will generally consist of. Wrapping the item in several inches of heavy-duty bubble wrap with careful attention shown to pressure points, crafting the placement of the bubble wrap in a manner that allows delicate parts of the item to remain out of harm's way.

The item is then placed into a tight-fitting carton with a void fill of either peanuts, Styrofoam, bubble wrap or a combination of the three to ensure it cannot move within the carton. That carton is then double-boxed by placing it into an outer carton 2-3 larger on all sides with a dense void fill in the gap [note, paintings are generally not double-boxed but instead have a different packing methodology to properly protect the frame from pressure].
