Beautiful old Chinese ivory bracelet carved in a chain-of-hearts aesthetic and further set with five gold mounted garnets. A very handsome piece, beautifully made and with the ivory showing an exceedingly fine grain (see pics). An old estate piece from a very good Dallas picker resource and the ivbory showing the fine mellow color of old ivory; I would date it to about the 1900 - 1940 era, probably 1930s based on the Art Deco aesthetic. Not marked as to country of origin, but most likely Chinese (possibly Mughal) for the English or European market. Marked on the inside of the bracelet with a tiny number "585" [one of the European marks for 14K gold] and otherwise unmarked. Unconditionally guaranteed genuine ivory and genuine gold and genuine garnets. Your money, less shipping, cheerfully refunded with *no questions asked* if you buy it and don't agree after you see it in person, but you aren't going to be disappointed. MINT condition on very careful and honest inspection with NO chips, cracks, hairlines, or discolorations in the ivory and no problems with the gold or the stones. The pics show the condition well and it is MINT and you will not be disappointed. Interior circumerence is 8" and interior diameter is 2.65" (please compare carefully against a bracelet that its you well to ensure a good fit). NO RESERVE and a very low start and the pics tell the rest of the story, a nice eBay opportunity. Please check my other auctions for more interesting and luxe items from old Dallas estates, almost everything at NO RESERVE and starting under $10; I'm happy to combine shipping.
