Interesting vintage / antique bypass bracelet:
~ Hand made / hand carved natural horn
~ Gorgeous colorations
~ Some areas are semi transparent and really catch the light nicely
Ready and waiting for your wrist, collection, or gift giving - You will love this!
AGE OR ERA: Totally unsure due to the timeless design, hand made origin, and lack of marks - Broadly guessing 1900's to 1970's in age. The use of horn in this type of bracelet dates back to Victorian times or earlier and is still produced today - especially in Viet Nam and other Asian cultures. I feel this one has quite a bit of age to it, mainly due to the look and feel of the horn material on the inside of the bracelet - it isn't freshly polished or buffed up - it has a very old look with many demarcations and characteristics
MARKINGS: None that I could find
METAL / MATERIAL: Natural horn
CLASP / CLOSURE: None - slide on to wear bangle style
MEASUREMENTS: Inside diameter aprox 2 1/2" across - 1 3/8" tall or wide in the front and about 3/4" wide in the back

"A picture is worth a thousand words"
Please 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 try my best to note anything glaring or distracting. Individuals do have varying levels of desire and tolerance for "vintage charm" so do utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all, as they are an integral part and extension of the description.
