Double the Pleasure Victorian Gold Flower Bracelet
This is a beautifully executed jewel with double sided gold links. On the top of the bracelet are seventeen flowers with a natural turquoise in each. The bracelet appears to be hand made. Some of the flowers are larger than others and hold a turquoise that is in proportion to the flower size. Repousse engraved petals are indented and curved to resemble an actual flower. The surprise comes when you turn the bracelet over. The front flower is backed by another of the same size, the difference being that each link has a small raised flower at center rather than another turquoise. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE that the turquoise that seems more green is not a replacement nor is it disturbingly green. The naked eye makes little of the difference as it is close to the color of its neighbors. Some color change has occurred over the years because the oils of the finger touch that stone when the clasp is closed and opened. That is natural to turquoise. The condition is excellent. This is a touching example of the fine and generous work done in Victorian jewelry. 7 1/2 inches is the length. It is an average size. The bracelet comes with its own fitted box which we dealers covet.
