EXQUISITE-c1906 EDWARDIAN 14K GOLD REPOUSSE BANGLE-25gm I am pleased to offer this absolutely STUNNING Edwardian 14k Gold Repousse bangle bracelet. ..it is very rare as it has a DOUBLE hinge...and pulls open from BOTH sides..and when opened a thick slider bar appears on either side. and you push it shut to close and lock.. and INGENIOUS and very secure closure A VERY RARE HEIRLOOM BANGLE..and So Ornate .....and t is a central large poppy on either side and flanking these are the largest REPOUSSE SCROLLS and the patterning is around the entire outer surface is in FABULOUS ANTIQUE condition and would suit the serious buyer. It is stamped inside PAT PENDING JUNE 26th 1906. Any dark shadows in the photos are simply reflection due to its high sheen. ..my photos are taken outside in full sunlight to give an accurate appraisal of the items condition , as photos taken under artificial light tend to hide imperfections. HISTORY It is Circa 1906 by design and styling and patent stamp, and is a rare piece indeed. I have only ever had one other with this hinge design in my possession . It is stamped on the inside slider bars PAT PENDING JUNE 26th 1906 and on the other slider bar H & H TRADEMARK . It is not stamped for gold content but the outer surface tests positive for 14 karat gold and this is gold shell ... .. . Antique Gold Shell is a solid outer layer of gold over an underlying thin metal core for strength and rigidity. H & H - HAMILTON & HAMILTON - PROVIDENCE RI Since 1900 - Their items are very rare and I have only ever had two of theirs in my inventory.. so dont miss this one ! High quality examples like this were often 14kt gold shell or solid 14kt gold, and are very collectable and usually stand out from the others. Although it has no assay marks many valuable items escaped paying duty and do not carry a hallmark, but they are made of precious metal. .. These items are highly prized amongst collectors as they are becoming very scarce, and this is a high end piece DESCRIPTION & SIZING . . It is so RARE to find such a piece like this..with such glorious scroll carvings...this is one of the prettiest Edwardian bangles i have had for some time ...the design and embellishments are so unique and simply one of a kind as they are around the entire outer surface.. and it is like a golf bangle style. Highly detailed.... The feel of this bangle is fabulous, it has that ultra smooth look and feel when putting it on, that usually is associated with solid karat gold.. , ... . A Very old and beautiful heirloom indeed. It is a beautiful rich antique yellow gold color, and it has that buttery hue unlike the brassy yellow gold of today.. and it is excellent as you would expect with quality antique jewelry. The entire outer surface of the bangle has the deepest REPOUSSE scrolls with a large central Poppy...... the most beautiful and one of a kind heirloom piece. ....truly gorgeous ! . It catches the light with every turn and this patterning is so ornate. The interior is plain and smooth This is a MUST for the gold bangle collector or Edwardian bangle collector. It is oval in shape so it doesnt slide on the wrist and the inside measures 7 1/4" and it is 1/2" in width and a semi tubular style .. This would fit up to an 7" wrist but can also be worn as an upper arm bangle or slave bangle for those with smaller wrists....this is due to its unique very oval shape so when it is pushed up the arm it will remain in position. The bangle opens on BOTH sides.. you PULL it gently to open.. and both sides have a solid hidden extender bar.. and they both SLIDE out . You then slip it on the wrist and then push both sides together and the left side moves into position and the right side locks with a crisp snap ! A unique and brilliant design ! This is a substantial piece and weighs approx 25 grams, which further adds to its appeal ! The only thing i can see is someone has tested the inside for gold content and has put a tiny hole into the surface..but this is not visible when being worn.. and does not deter from its beaut...
