Offered is an impressive antique sterling silver articulated bracelet featuring elaborate raised scrollwork, filigree-style detailing, and ornate Arabic calligraphy-inspired motifs associated with traditional North African and Middle Eastern silver jewelry.


The bracelet is constructed from four substantial articulated panels, joined together to create a flexible design that conforms beautifully around the wrist. It closes with a traditional removable locking pin, an especially attractive feature of this older style of bracelet.


The silver has been acid tested with a positive silver reaction. Small punched hallmarks are also present on the bracelet. Please see the close-up photographs of the marks, as they are part of the description.
