  • Details
    Rare and unique oriental / Asian / Japanese bangle bracelet:

    * Eye-catching vivid orange and white swirled jade / stone or art glass made to mimic

    * Custom hand made sterling silver protective and decorative cage

    * 4 evenly spaced stations with fanciful elaborate filigree butterflies and sentimental forget-me-not flowers

    * Each little butterfly seems have it's own identity and personality due to the handmade nature - I love it. You could name each one and always have a friend near by..... If this fit on my wrist - It would be in my personal collection in a second

    ESTIMATED AGE OR ERA = True original authentic antique. I am not an expert in Asian antiquities what-so-ever ...... I just have a nasty gift of being able to pick out something special when I see it. I am only guessing this to be circa the late part of the 1800's to very early 1900's based on construction, motif, and craftsmanship. Broadly Qing Dynasty

    METAL AND/OR MATERIAL = Glass or stone bangle bracelet and sterling silver metal work

    CLOSURE/CLASP = N/A - slide on to wear

    MARKS = None that I could find

    MEASUREMENTS = With bracelet laying flat - inside diameter is about 2 1/2" across. The outside to outside measures aprox 3" - not including any metalwork (making the walls 1/4" thick). The bangle is 3/8" tall or high

    US RING SIZE = N/A

    WEIGHT = 41.3 grams on my scale

    CONDITION = Fantastic condition for the age - no damage or quirks found to mention

    View & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina, and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren't considered damaged. I will do my best to note anything glaring or distracting. Please utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all. Pictures normally speak louder than words and individuals also interpret characteristics differently.
