Huge high end designer cuff bracelet by Charles Albert:
~ Features a natural or free form shaped banded agate slice, slab, or piece
~ Rich tones in brown hues with white bands
~ Metaphysically speaking - agate is believed to stabilize the wearer emotionally and mentally and it also helps with composure, protection, and feelings of security
~ This really has some depth to the color and pattern and seem to glow when the light hits just right
~ Very heavy and substantial looking and feeling - see the photos in my hand and on my wrist to gauge the size... it is a massive showy piece
~ You will LOVE this!
- Ready and waiting for your wrist, collection, and/or gift giving

Please view & enlarge all 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. 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.
