This striking wide articulated costume bracelet is attributed to BARCS Australia and bears the style reference C805.
Constructed from overlapping crescent-shaped panels, it features a richly textured diamond lattice and a warm gold-tone finish. The individual feather- or scale-shaped links nestle next to each other, creating a wonderfully fluid bracelet that feels exceptionally slinky and satisfying in the hand.
Its sculptural design shows Etruscan Revival influences, recalling ancient, granulated metalwork and ceremonial jewellery. It fastens with a fold-over clasp. The bracelet measures 20 cm long × 2.5 cm across (7.9 inches long × 1 inch across).
There is substantial age-related plating wear and discolouration to the back and articulated mechanisms. Most of this wear is hidden when the bracelet is fastened, while the front presents very nicely with only minimal visible wear and retains a strong, richly textured gold-tone appearance. It has been priced low to reflect the condition of the reverse. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description.
A dramatic piece of Australian costume jewellery with fabulous movement and impressive construction.
Please like or share, or tag someone who would happily wrap their wrist in a little golden armour. ✨
